Bunny Box

I saw a little box like this made by Terri Ransom  while I was cruising around online the other day.  I just had to make one.  It is so cute! I had to improvise a little bit, because I didn't have the same supplies that were used in the original.

I also added a handle to my little bunny box.

Terri's box didn't have one, but I thought it would be 'handy'. 

Here's a close up of his cute little face. :)

Mr. Penguin meets MDS

Mr. Penguin comes back for a visit, but he's a little more "high tech" this year.
Today, I sat down and played w/ My Digital Studio and challenged myself to make a card. I LOVE punch cards that I see on everyone's blogs, but I myself am not very imaginative. I thought I would try out someone familar--like Mr. Penguin and see if I could get him made. Well... I did pretty good, but I could not figure out how to connect his ear muffs. LOL. I guess Mr. Penguin glues them on. :)

Supplies: My Digital Studio--yep, that's it. :)

Na-na na na Elmo's World

Evan absolutely LOVES Elmo. It amazes me how a little boy that doesn't acknowledge his name can hear Elmo from across the house and come running. Every morning we watch Sesame Street and if Evan should be playing in the kitchen, it sounds like a herd of elephants coming down the hallway when the "Elmo's World" theme song starts. Evan smiles and it makes my heart feel like it is going to explode with happiness. I love to see 'typical' behavior-- that most mommies think nothing of, but makes my whole day.

Kelly Mayou recently had one of my FAVORITE STAMPERS of all time, Dawn Griffith on her Blog Finds of the Day. I haven't been blog hopping much lately, but knew this is one I had to check out.

I found these cards and a little video tutorial on Dawn's Blog. I have visited a lot of stamping blogs and read a lot of posts, but this is the first time that I got teary. It was perfect! I knew immediately that I was going to follow Dawn's tutorial and make Evan an Elmo.

Now I didn't want Elmo to be a lonely little monster so I had to make Cookie Monster too to keep him company while Evan naps. ♥

Chilly Willy--The Penguin

This morning is blustery in Southwestern Wisconsin. The gusty wind reminds me that the warm days of summer are gone and the chilly days of winter will soon be arriving.
After getting Evan down for a nap, I threw on a sweatshirt and headed downstairs and made this little fella. I found him on Patty Bennett's blog CASEd from another blog. One good CASE deserves another right?! :)

He's so cute. I may have to make a whole flock....
