CI Paints Inspired By: Your Fav. Die

This week's challenge at Creative Inspiration Paints is:

Inspired By: Your Favorite Die

Here's my creation:

I just love this butterfly die that I got from Sweet Stamps!  It's called "Intricate Butterfly".

I actually cut it out three times and cut one of them to make it smaller.


I used CI Paint "Tutu Pink" to add shimmer to the butterfly! I also used some of the new hot fix jewels and metallic inspirations on this card from CI Paints!


Have a great day!

Sawyer's B-Day Invites

With the crazy busy hours I have been working, I decided to digitally make Sawyer's Birthday Invites this year!  We decided to just have a little get together with the grandma's and aunts/uncles.

He was so excited over them!! 

It was between a Cars theme or Toy Story and he is obsessed with both.
I used Photoshop to create these fun ticket style invites.  I seen a similar invite on the internet awhile back and thought it was such a fun idea!  (Sorry I can't find the site anymore to share the link)

Have a great weekend!  Mine will be spent "playing" with new toys!! :)

Future Racer?!?!

Definetly can tell he has his Mumzy's and Daddy's blood!  Our little guy just loves racecars!!
As scary as it would be to watch him race someday, I'm really hoping maybe he'll get the chance to enjoy something my husband and I enjoyed doing for many years together!

It's so hard to believe yesterday was my little guys 3rd Birthday!  Where does that time go?

One thing I really enjoy about my job, is being able to set my own hours, as for me it is mandatory I have off on his b-day to do whatever he wants! Something that will continue to be done every year!

Have a great day!
