One last Summer card- You're the coolest!

Hello, It's Tuesday and today marks the day of back to school for the kiddos here in Canada at least.  I've got one last summer themed card until we dive into all things Autumn and cozy!

So slider cards are really popular these days. They have been around for awhile but the companies "My Favorite Things" and "Lawn Fawn" have made it a lot easier with slider dies to create fun interactive cards.  I didn't use there products to create this fun slider card but I cut the slider hole myself with an exacto knife. I will link down below to the products you can get to create sliders. I'd eventually like to get my hands on these dies myself as it would make these cards a lot faster.

Anyways, I used My Favorite Things "Penguins in Paradise" stamp set and colored the images with copic and spectrum noir markers.  I added a bit of detail to the penguins blue shorts and there belly's with a white pen. I created the sand with a spectrum noir marker and the blue background is created using My Favorite Things "Blu Raspberry" Hybrid Ink.  The penguins and palm trees were stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

The card has form tape below the image and background to prop up the front piece to allow for the slider to slide well.  Below the track is a penny attached to form tape and then the beach ball is placed on top of the foam tape too and this allows the penguins to play ball. I think this card is the coolest, hehe!

Get Kids Crafty May Blog Hop Gardening theme

It's that time of month again where I share a fun crafty project that I made with my kiddo Riley for Get Kids Crafty. Hello and thank you for joining us for the May Get Kids Crafty! blog hop! We are thrilled to have you! Our theme this month is gardening and our kids have created some AMAZING projects to share with you! We had a lot of fun creating our project this month. We made a bumble bee mobile.  Both my kids love the song bringing home my baby bumble bee. Especially my youngest Liam, it seems to usually calm him down when he's upset.  So we created this fun project to the theme of the song.      First we had to die cut our bees, Here is Riley playing with an already cut bee in the Big Shot machine.      Here is Riley turning the handle on the Big Shot machine to cut out all our bees. We had to do 16 in total one for the front and back as you will see in a little bit. Here is what the finished bee looks like and the die cut that we used from
