Taming The Wildest Chick…

Posted by Jen | ABC Friday, The Cat's Pajamas, product finds, projects | Friday, February 27, 2009

Happy ABC Friday! I have a couple of fun things to share with you today. First, it’s release day for all those cute new The Cat’s Pajamas stamps, which make up the new Kitty Kat Pack {save $12 if you buy all three sets}. This is one of my favorite projects from this release. I started out with a little flat birdhouse that I picked up at Hobby Lobby for $.70. Yep, 70cents! It was originally a dollar and I got it on a 30% sale. How’s that for a deal!?! I painted it with cream paint and then added the Honey Pie {Cosmo Cricket} paper. birdhouse

As for the details, I added the fun shape that I cut out with my Slice machine {also embossed with the Swiss Dots embossing folder} and then added the image, buttons and sentiment. I used my Martha Stewart fern punch and a small flower punch for some added detail around the sentiment. The top has May Arts gingham ribbon that I double tied, a Prima flower and a Dew Drop, which also adorn the edge of the birdhouse.

Now for all you wild stamping chicks, I have a really fun item for you!! Check out what Debbie Daniels makes…

I first saw these at the Austin swap last year and I was in love. They are just so fun! I picked up several for friends around Christmas and I will have one up for grabs starting tomorrow {more deets to come!}. Have a great Friday! I am still nursing this cold…ugh! I am sure that it will all be better when Susan and I go shopping tomorrow! LOL!
