Lily's 3rd birthday! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a little craft that I made for a little girl's birthday.  I made her using two of the new Placecard Pals from Art Impressions.

4805 – Cat & Owl Placecard Set

4806 – Christmas Placecard Set

I used the feet and bows from the cat and owl set and the rest was formed from pieces from the Santa and snowman set.  I trimmed the feet and hat to suit my purposes.  Lily's hair was made from Santa's mustache.

Do you know a little girl that would love seeing this at her party?  You can customize the hair, add pig tails, match the outfit to what she's wearing etc.  The possibilities are endless.

Hello Ai friends and happy Thursday!

 

Today I am sharing 2 cards using the 2 new Place Card Pals sets... Cat & Owl Placecard Set (4805) and Christmas Placecard Set (4806) .

 

When I first saw the glasses die in the Cat & Owl Set, I knew it would be perfect paired with the sentiment from Spec-tacular Set (4290) .

 

On both cards I created the hair with 2 mustache diecuts from the Christmas Set (one was cut in half).  I used brown hair for the little girl and added a sparkly bow.  Then I switched up some papers and used gray hair to make an "older" lady.  ;)  Her sentiment is You First (3472) .

 

There are endless ways to be creative with these dies!

 

Have a great day and… happy stamping!
