Project Life - April 2013

I am going to share a bit of a different project here today using a lot of different products. I had a stamp set from Whiff of Joy that really made me think of Project Life and then there was that 3x4 heart pocked page die that just spoke to me. So what I decided to do for this Whiff of Joy post was to make my own project life cards using these products. I really wanted to show a different way to use the stamps and dies and how versatile they really are.

I made it pretty simple by just stamping the images in black ink on white paper and then trimming the papers to 3x4. I then added some more embellishments by using washi tape, enamel dots and so on.

I really like the way the cards turned out and of course I had to make a project life spread using my new cards. I ended up making three pages for April 2013 (yes I am still really behind on the whole thing). So here is the final spread that I made.

Tyvärr blev det inte alls som jag hade tänkt eller hoppats med den kullen jag har här hemma nu. Den lilla flickan i kullen blev dålig och blev snabbt sämre. Trots besök till veterinär och antibiotika och hjälp med vätskebalansen så gick hennes liv inte att rädda. Det känns otroligt tråkigt att det blev så här med denna kullen och det är första gången jag varit med om någon liknande. Den lilla killen i kullen mår fortfarande bra och jag hoppas att det fortsätter så.

Då det inte gick som planerat med denna kull så kommer jag att behålla denna kille längre än vanligt och jag kommer heller inte att tinga bort honom elelr ha några besökare hit innan jag verkligen är helt säker på att han är helt frisk. Det kommer bli lite veterinärbesök när han blir äldre för att gå igenom både honom och mamma Adezza. Allt för att försöka säkerställa att det inte är några fel på någon av de två.

Nu är lilla killen i alla fall 3 veckor gammal och det är full fart redan. Han är riktigt söt den lille i alla fall och jag hoppas verkligen att allt går bra hädanefter.

Unfortunately the little female kitten I had didn't make it and passed away. So now there is only one little guy left and so far he is doing well. I'll be keeping him a while longer than normal to make sure he is healthy and all that before trying to find him a new home.

He turned 3 weeks recently and is a really adventurous little man, and also really really cute.

Simple Sunday #1 - For Your Birthday

I made a card today using one of my favorite dies from Whiff of Joy. I do realize that I need to start making card using other dies as well, but I just can't help myself (I will be featuring some other products later this month though). I love this small banners die and really have to get the set with the larger banners too. These banners can be used for almost anything and this time I tried to use them in a bit of a different way. What I did was use them around a circle die cut, it sort of resembles a flower in a way. I also used a very nice sentiment stamp set called Festive Occasions. If you are interested in getting any of these supplies for yourself, please visit the Whiff of Joy shop.

I have also uploaded a tutorial video that you can find on my YouTube channel or here below.
