My 1st Christmas card...

I wish it was still in early December...In November, coming home from the trip was delayed by 10 days and was delayed making Thanksgiving cards... then, I caught a cold... so, yes, this is my 1st Christmas card...😓

Here is my card for my godmother, using my new Concord & 9th addition! 

Most of this card was done with Concord & 9th and various card stock. I used Echo Park papers, which also had a Christmas star & stars. After finishing the card, I used Ranger's stickles to give it a shine. I often keep the package of skin cares, and this, "a little dull" gold card stock for the crescent and the sentiment came in handy. I die cut twice for manger and Joseph & pregnant Mary, to give a bit of dimension, to give a bit of "closer distance" compared to the building dies in the back. 

I hadn't used this Echo Park paper pad for 2 years? But I saw this sentiment in this paper pad. It matched to the front sentiment! So, I used spellbinder's frame die to cut that sentiment, and placed it on the gold paper, to place it inside of the card. I used "Blessings" die from Hero Arts to finish the card.  

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! Merry Christmas! Love, Eve

Coffee card for December swap

With this strong "cold" winds, almost everyday, I caught a cold and wasted a week in this busy December... my Christmas card making has been really delayed.. Yes, even Hawaii gets "winter", a different kind of winter but it reminds me that this is Hawaii's winter when I need to bring a long shirt or hoodie and sometimes have to wear a pair of pants instead of shorts... 

So, this is my card. I love this stamp set from The Greetery! Usually I buy craft supplies during the big sales but once in a while, I fall in love with it and have to buy right away, and this set was that... I used this stamp set for fall and now, it's a Peppermint Mocha time! 

I used my ANOTHER "fell in love" product from Waffle Flower for this but they just released it (I believe?!) so I didn't have to wait too long for the sale, which is the poinsetta stencil I LOVE IT!! I made this as a top folding card this time. I used the foam tape on the back of the coffee glass but not the whipped cream and the straw so that it looks as if they are inside of the glass. These cute embellishments are from Trinity Stamps. They carry such cute embellishments! 

Hope y'all are not going to get buried in snow this week. We are having a little better week, weather wise, compared to last week. Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Stay warm!  Hugs, Eve

Coffee card, Nov. 2022

Aloha~

I was a day late for the deadline to mail my swap card but I did, and this is my card. I really love this stamp set from MFT! Although I love living by the beach, fall and PSL always remind me of "woodland"! I water colored the oval die before placing those animals, holding hot coffee in the "sweater weather"! Then I attached tiny gingko stickers from Japan. The background paper is from Newton's Nook designs. I loved the sentiment stamp from Art Impressions. 

Have a great week! Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Now, time to start making Christmas cards! Hugs, Eve

Coffee card, Oct.2022

Aloha~

My October "swap" coffee card was delayed due to my trip, and I finally made and mailed it early in November.

I fell in love with this stamp set as soon as it was introduced, back in September, but as soon as I received the set, I had to leave and no time for playing with it til I came home. What a beautiful set from The Greetery! And you all know that I always look forward to PSL season, so this was a must have and yes, this is the card I made! 

I heat embossed the sentiment. I also used the Greetery's Coaster die, which I love. I used the papers from Lawn Fawn and Sunny Studio. 

Well, my most fav. season went by so fast, esp. me travelling. Have a nice week! Not too cold nor too much of snow wherever you are, so that you can prepare for Christmas!! 🎄Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Love, Eve

Happy Thanksgiving! 2022

Aloha~

Ok, Thanksgiving day has come and gone. I've been quite busy, and, I forgot which website I used, to place "watermark" on my photos, and it took forever to find it! lol I've used other photo shop site for several years til they stopped, and I had to find another one. I did, but back in July and for the last couple of months, I didn't post anything, and I totally forgot the website! 😓Anyways, now, I found it, and I can post my "watermarked" photos! So, hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving day!

I made two cards this year, using the same technique but used different papers and colors. This big die and other extra dies are all from Hero Arts, their monthly kit of May, 2022. I liked the "white" all around, and water colored a little. 

Now, I will not forget the website of placing watermark.😅

Hope you are having a nice weekend, probably, everyone is busy! Nearby mall was packed today! Thanks for visiting my blog today! Hugs, Eve

Coffee card for the swap of "Aug.& Sept. combined"

Aloha~

PSL season has arrived! Hallelujah! In fact, I didn't plan to make this card in August but later, these two months got combined, and now it's THE season! I've been "obsessed" with papers, esp. for this fall lately, which many stamp companies have been releasing, MORE than stamps and dies! LOL When I saw the Newton's Nook designers paper pads, I had to get them all, 3 of them, even I hardly ever buy anything with dogs. I love dogs but I'm a cat person and don't have much chance of mailing dog's cards. But, I bought the dog's one, too, cuz I thought they were adorable! lol 

Now, the paper I fell in love with is this PSL paper, and I wanted to use it right away!

The kitty stamp is also from Newton's Nook designs. The sentiment is from Art Impressions. "PSL" die cut is from Sunny Studio. I love the font of these dies. <3 I couldn't decide which die to use for the main image, and I decided to use both! The paper and the paper behind the sentiment is from Sunny Studio. Plastic pumpkins were buttons. I removed the shanks.

Inside, I used my fav. sentiment stamp from Art Impressions. I used the steam stamp from Lawn Fawn. The travel cup is the die cuts from Lil' Inker designs. 

Hope y'all are having a great Labor day weekend. Love, Eve

Happy birthday, "Caffeinated" friend!

I made this card for a card swap group member who's birthday coming up. 

First, I found this Birthday sentiment stamp from Lawn Fawn, which I hadn't used before. It was released a year or two ago. I decided to use it on the sun. I used stencil to give the sunshine rays around it. I both die cut the waves and sandy beach from designer's papers, to give a bit of interests, without coloring. I used those special papers to cut the palm trees, too. I fussy cut the clouds from the designer's paper I found in my stash. I used the black shiny pen for the nose and the eyes of the bear. Since this is for a "caffeinated" friend, I made the bear to hold a coffee. 😊 I attached a couple of the shimmering shells on the sand. 

Inside, I stamped another "never have used" stamp (!!) and added the cupcake die from My Favorite Things. 

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Love, Eve

Happy Birthday! Let's "seal-abrate"! 2 cards!

Two birthdays are coming up. 

Last month and earlier this month, 2 monk seal pups were spotted, in different beaches. I wanted to use this special kit from Queen and co. since I purchased it a couple of months ago. So, here are my cards. Before I made these cards, Queen and co. had a live demo on FB. She made a "Hawaiian" vibe birthday card. It gave me the inspiration for a card. She placed tiny flowers as lei around the neck, and on the whole card. She told me that she made this card for her sister who just went back from Hawaii, for her birthday. As me being a "local", I see people often wear lei around the head also. I found these little plastic flowers inside of two different packets of "sequins", so I attached those by glue. Designed papers are all from that kit, except the solid color ones. I wanted to add "bubbles" and found these in my stash.  

Here is my 2nd card. I used the same kit. Most are from the kit but the "rocks" and sentiment tag are from MFT. I also found the designed paper from my paper stash, for these rocks. 

I'm not so fond of making "interactive" cards, except "shaker cards"! I LOVE making them! And Queen and co. brings the kit with those shaker cards elements with the theme! I can also buy "refills" for anything but I can use all those elements (stamps and dies) to just make a regular card even I run out of the "shaker" elements. I love that!

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Hope you've started the last week of August great! Love, Eve   

Coffee card for July swap

Happy 4th of July! 

Well, hope everyone had a great celebration, a week ago! 

This is the card I made for the swap. I had this Stampendous! Uncle Sam's hat stamp for ages, and still love it! This "woodmounted" (grey) rubber stamp says "2000", manufacturing year. I probably bought it within 2 years time. Back then, I usually bought "newly released" stamps in like 2 years time. Not only the "online shopping" on internet wasn't common, like now, but also I lived in the US territory in the Pacific, far away from US mainland, so it took a while for some stamps to get to Guam. 20 years have passed so fast! Surprisingly, there were 3 places I could buy stamps beside Ben Franklin, SU! & CTMH!, on that tiny island back then! 

Other stamps are from Essentials by Ellen & My Favorite Thing stamps. I added "stickers" for the words, and star brads. Star brads were too shiny so I smudged a little with brown color Copics. I did some doodling for steam and the table. I love when I make a card, using the "left over" "stickers" and "brads" from the LONG time past. 😊 

Inside, I typed "For the BOLD and the Brave".

I got the inspiration from my calendar in front of my desk as soon as I turned the page to July. 

Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Hope you are having a relaxing Sunday. Love, Eve

Coffee card for June swap

Aloha~

So, what do you think of my card? I made this Tiki bar with mixed drink stamps set into the "morning cafe on the beach" here in Hawaii 😊 I drink iced coffee on the beach but some drinks only hot coffee even in hot summer, so you can choose from this Tiki CAFE stand! 😄 It's hard to tell but I chose the textured white paper for beach chair to die cut, to stand out a little from the background. Mostly colored with copics. I used Newton's Nook & MFT's stencils for palm trees and sun beam from the sun rise. I added seashell embellishments from Queen and Co. They come in different colors but I liked this color on this card the most 😊

Inside, I used a couple of stickers.

Yesterday was King Kamehameha day (state holiday) and we are having a long weekend. 

Mahalo for stopping by my blog today! 

Hugs, Eve

Coffee card for May swap

Aloha~

I made a "really" "caffeinated" card for this month! I mean, it's only brown (and white) in color! I usually make a cute and colorful card, as you all know... I enjoyed making the background layering card stock. These days, people wants to use stencils and dies for "faster" effect, but once in a while, I wanna just stamp, and stamp! I stamped all individual words and coffee beans. I used the shadow dies to cut out the white card stock, used the same dies to cut out the "cocoa color"card stock, to panel them in the white card stock, and layered the words dies on those shadow dies cut out. It was fun! I used the Frappuccino and iced coffee images cuz it's getting hot, the season for those! 

Inside, I stamped the sentiment from SimonSaysstamp! and the stickers of syphon and coffee beans which I found in Tokyo.

Although we've been living in a crazy time, hope your week is going well. Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Hugs, Eve

Happy PURR-THDAY!

Aloha~

I'd been away from home for a month, and I finally finished the birthday card I planned to make, for my godmother. I don't like to purchase a kit in general but I loved the theme~cat. lol So I purchased it as soon as this became available. I don't do interactive cards much but I love making "shaker" cards ever since! 😊 My godmother once had a orange tabby cat, and she is my most fav. kind of kitty, so I made this kitty cat a orange tabby cat.😸 I used the sentiment from a kitty stamp set from MFT (old one). The heart balloon is Paper Smooches'. I used the stitch dies for the base and the layered card stock. 

Hope you are having a nice weekend! Finally better weather, here in Hawaii! Hugs, Eve 

Hoppy Easter & coffee!

This is the card for April at Expresso Yourself - CLP FB group. I just love this bear with, esp. the bunny ears! It always cracks me up! 😁 He decided to bring Coffee instead of eggs for Easter. 😉 I colored them with Copics. All stamped images are from 3 different stamp sets of Essential by Ellen. Three designed papers are from Lawn Fawn.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. HOPPY Easter!  Love, Eve

Happy Anniversary!!

Aloha, 

I purchased this wine glass dies and coordinated plastic shaker pouch some months ago, wanting to make a card with these. It's for my best friends' wedding anniversary. I found this background paper from my "long time-hoarded" paper stash (!!) which had some shimmery, "heat embossed" texture on the purple flowers which I thought I could match with the shimmer all around on this card. You can't see it on the picture well but also, the purple sentiment strip was attached to the shimmery light yellow card stock. I could just attached the wine glasses on the background paper directly but I found old Lawn Fawn Bokeh paper so, I sealed the back of the wine glasses with the bokeh paper first after I inserted all the shaker pieces. I wish Lawn Fawn makes more of these Bokeh papers but that was from several years ago... I attached gold little puffy heart stickers from old Simon Says Stamp kit. I first thought of attaching everything straight on the base of the card. Then, one day, I planned to finish the card, and just touched the edge of the card on my desk by accident. Since all the elements weren't adhered, it moved, and I ended up liking this diagonal position! LOL Hope they'll like it! 

Hope y'all had a nice weekend! Here, it's been super windy, with clear sky but like over 30mph wind gusts! It's been hard to stay standing at the intersection! lol... Mahalo for stopping by my blog today! Hugs, Eve

Happy Easter #1

Aloha~

My first card for this Easter. One day, I felt like making a colorful background, not really thinking of making an Easter card but wanted to get "inky". 😊 So I started to ink the white card stock, in a circular motion with the little ink blending tools to just "color" it, with "spring" "cheerful" colors, and this is what I ended up with. Then, I saw a metal bunny stencil which I just bought on my desk...actually I bought an Easter designed mug cup at Ross, and the stencil came with it! LOL I felt like I had to use it and started to ink in white after the colored background card stock was dried. Unfortunately the white pigment ink didn't show much, so, on my desk, I also saw the jar of Lawn Fawn's "fairy dust" gel paste which I'd never used before. Sometimes after receiving my order, I just don't have a chance to use, and just leave them on my desk, so I wouldn't forget it, and will eventually use it! lol It worked very well on this card. Only thing I had to be careful about using this stencil was to lift it up, cuz it is a metal, and hard to handle. Anyways, I think I did a good job using this stencil. 😊 The sentiment on the front and paper for that short sentiment are both Lawn Fawn's. 

Inside, I stamped the long sentiment from Poppy stamps, with one of Kaleidacolor ink pads I have, for many years, to match the colors on the front. Sorry, I forgot to take that picture...

Have a nice weekend, y'all! Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Hugs, Eve    

Congratulations!

On your new job! 

My best friend got a new job. Woohoo! She's very excited! She'll leave the current job next month and will start the new job within a week. 

I heard this news when the TV news had started to show Cherry blossoms in D.C. It's the thing there this time of the year. I had this beautiful paper in my stash, used it as the background paper on this card. No, I didn't make this beautiful paper. lol This is from one of the old calendars from Japan a couple of years. ago. When I find some beautiful papers, either from the calendar or wrapping papers, I trim the beautiful parts which I think I can use on my cards in the future, and keep them. I want this card to be simple, and wanna mail it asap. In Japan, April is the start of the school year as well as the businesses. Cherry blossoms can be seen across Japan from late March to mid April. New job, April, Cherry blossoms in D.C. are the inspiration of this card. Oh and she is from D.C. area. I die cut big sentiment 3 times to give a bit of interest on this card. 

It's kinda hard to take a picture of the card front when there is a shiny design, and this case, all the "shiny" gold. ...there is no black on this card front. Darker shades on motifs are in shiny gold. 

When I can't decide which color goes the best, I have to try them all. Also the color combination of two sentiments. Those gradation of pink I used is from Lawn Fawn's paper pack, which already has some gradation. I just used the fav.part of the gradation for the big sentiment die.

Hope you had a nice weekend, found some time to make some cards 😊 In Hawaii, it was a Prince Kuhio Day (state holiday), and it was a long weekend! 

Hugs, Eve   

Happy St. Patrick's Day #2

 Aloha, 

This is the card I made for "Coffee themed" card swap group I belong. So, what do you think? I purchased the clover dies from Lawn Fawn. I fussy cut the mug cup from also Lawn Fawn's new released paper. I made a slit and tucked the 3 strips of "specialty papers" for the rainbow. I also used Lawn Fawn papers for blue sky background and grasses. This "leprechaun" is actually gnome stamp from Lawn fawn, 10 years ago! It's the retired stamp but I saw someone made a "leprechaun " from the gnome stamp and I remembered I had a gnome stamp! And of course, I had a leprechaun hat. 😉 Inside, I wrote "Irish you are a lucky day with a big cup o'gold and delicious coffee!" lol 

Mahalo for stopping by my blog today. Hope y'all are having a nice week! Hugs, Eve 

Happy St. Patrick's Day! #1

Aloha, 

This is my first St. Patty's day card this year. On Friday, I received my order from Lawn Fawn, the new release. I love this clover stencil set! I tried it as soon as I received, and really like it! This product is cleverly made. So, I don't need two different kinds of green ink. The way this stencil works is that you can use only one ink and get the two color result, in this case, green (original color) and darker green. I also purchased their new ink pad ~ Clover. I have several green ink pads from different companies but I wanted to try this green inkpad from LF. Every year, I make St. Patrick's day card. When I have a heavy heart, I tend to make a "clean" card. Right now, Russian is attacking Ukraine...😢 I love how this card turned out, though. The sentiment was heat embossed in gold on an old vellum from my "hoarded" collection. Again, when I get to use some piece from like 20 years ago, it makes me feel good 😊 

Hope and pray the war will be over very soon before everything gets destroyed in Ukraine... 🙏

Have a great week! Love, Eve 

#cardsforukraine

 Aloha, 

One of the FB groups I belong to has started "#cardsforukraine" after Russia started the war on Ukraine. I just can't imagine, to flee from your home, with a suitcase of things....I don't have a friend nor family, neither in Russia nor Ukraine but this war, or "any war" really hits hard on me, so I decided to join. They are rather simple. When I have a heavy heart, my cards become rather simple, like sympathy cards. No recipients in mind. I just wanna the people of Ukraine to know that my thoughts and prayers are with them. According to the source, sun flower is Ukraine's national flower. 🌻

I just keep praying that it'll be over soon before many people get killed. 

Praying... Eve

Coffee card ~ February

Aloha!

This is the card I made for the card swap for February. I recently got this heart die, and wanted to use it for the Valentine's day cards. When I saw this die, I thought I could make the same design without having this special die, just having a heart die... I was wrong. lol. You would think it's easy, and I tried and failed..So, I bought it. With this, though, I can make another design. I already have some designs in my head. Anyways, then, I had to find some sentiment and design on the card front. .. I looked up and saw 2022 "coffee themed" calendar in front of me by the desk. You can see it below the picture of my card. I really liked the sentiment. But of course, I didn't have THAT sentiment stamp. But I used the sentiment on the front of the card and inside of the card 😊 I die cut the mug cups, adhered 3 die cut outs to give some dimension. I really wanted to have "steam" but don't have those dies, so I free hand cut them. I think they turned out to be good 😊 I used the wink of Stella to give a bit of shimmer on those "steam" cut outs. I also "hand cut" the banner with my handwriting. 

The little travel cup attached inside is a clay embellishment from Trinity stamps. Isn't it so cute?😍 

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Hope your week has started out great!  Lov,e, Eve

Coffee card ~ January 2022

Aloha~

I'm glad that some NICE and "Caffeinated" people on FB have decided to "continue" this coffee swap card group under different group name, after the original admin. has decided to close the one which ran.. for 4? years?... It's not an easy task to run the group like this. I've done it before so I know, and I was just a moderator. So I'm thankful for the original admin and the people who took it over. In 2000s', when PC became more popular and back then, YAHOO groups became very popular, before FB nor My space (if you remember!) nor the Pinterest! There were so many "card swaps" going on, by "snail mails"! But things have changed. Not many people do card swaps any more...😢 I also learned that USPS will increase their postage rate TWICE a year from this summer!! 😞

Anyways, here is my card. 

I used yellow and orange ink for the background stencil. The coffee cup and the building die cut are attached with foam tape to give a bit of dimension. I placed the velum behind all those little cut out windows. I found those stars from the containers of embellishment. I planned to make a card for a "New" Year/January, but instead, I made the card for a "NEW" day 😊 

Hope y'all had a great starting month of 2022!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Love, Eve   

Playing with new stencils

Aloha~

I finally found the time to "play" with some supplies I purchased in last couple of months. 

"Bamboos" are one of my fav. memories from childhood. My parents house had some of them. I used a couple of different inks and papers and I love the way the "background" papers turned out to be. I love panda bears, too, and have some stamps, so I'll definitely be making a card or two, with panda bear images! 🐼 

When I saw these stencil set, I had to have it, and most of you know why 😉 I first made background papers with "the sun" stencil. Although I used different inks, both came out fine. I wanted to dry completely before stenciling the other one, I waited over night. Well... my mistake was the first thing it came to my mind. .. how to have "black" ink without having 'colors' through, from the sun. I tried some black inks I have, on scratch papers, and I applied the darkest which was "pigment" ink, of course. The thing I should've been much more careful about in next step was "to remove the stencil" from the paper... well... THAT particular stencil was very slippery, harder to lift up and I failed to lift it at once, a couple of times.. and that's how it turned out... on your right in this picture...usually I'm really good hiding the mistakes but so far, with this, I haven't been able to come up with the idea yet... the stencil set is from Newton's Nook designs.

By the way, I "injured" myself with this Palm tree stencil.😢 When I was washing the stencil, a pointy part of palm pricked my finger! .. I had to put an ointment and bandage... fyi... please be careful...

This is my last play for the day. The stencil is from Picket fence. I've started to like making Slim cards/mini slim cards. Not only I can have a different kind of designs but also I love, FINALLY using 12 x 12 papers I hoarded since 20 + years ago and still haven't been able to use for making the envelopes for the slim cards and mini slim cards! It's really satisfying! LOL, just like I use those little left over scraps in "color separated boxes"!! I really like the design of this stencil. Yes, I already own MANY stencils and stamps and dies for making waves and rainbows but I really like THIS particular design! So, usually I use Blue inks or rainbows colors to make the background paper for this design, I used totally different colors. I used 3 colors to make this background paper. 

I'm not sure about you guys but I've always loved to make background papers. The harder part is to make a card with it. I have many background papers I made, "for relaxation" over the years, and that's one of the reasons I don't like to BUY designers papers.. but yes, I do buy them cuz they are hard to resist, "to hoard"! lol 

Hope you are having a great weekend! Tomorrow is AFC & NFC championship games! 🏈

To my east coast friends, please stay warm and stay safe! Love, Eve

Coffee card ~ December, 2021

Happy New year! 

I know, it's a little late but hope you all will have a wonderful year! 

Since I was so exhausted from work in December, I couldn't make a card on time for my card swap group 😢 Anyways, I finally finished it. It's a mini slim card.

I recently purchased the "(long) border dies" from Sunny Studio for Slim card. I used two of 6 dies in a package on this card. Stamps are from Lawn Fawn, as well as the background paper. I used a coaster die from The Greetery. I love this die! Actually that is a square die but I cut it after I die cut, to give a bit of different look. Aren't those "coffee beans" resins so cute??!! They are from Trinity Stamps. Those two companies are my latest favorites. 😍 

I decided to send these ground coffee from Hawaii and a calendar with my card. There are several (if not many!) coffee companies in Hawaii. I chose one from Honolulu where I live, and another one, just because I liked the name; Sunrise! LOL I like their "cappuccino" flavor. 

Mahalo for stopping by today! Hope y'all are having a wonderful weekend! To my friends in east coast, stay warm and stay safe! Love, Eve

Happy Holiday ~ #2

Aloha~

Continuing to my yesterday's post, this is another Christmas card (tag) which I made to send it with a Christmas ornament I found at Hallmark store for my best friend. 

The stamps are mostly from Unity stamp Co.. Although I still don't like the way we "store" those cling red rubber stamps, I love some of their stamps! Designs are awesome! Snowflakes are CTMH. 20 years later, I still have their stamps (and many other woodmounted red rubber stamps which still stamp great!). I used Lawn Fawn paper to layer the front card stock. I initially thought to "glue" the front panel to the background paper, like we usually do for our greeting cards, but I realized it's fun to NOT glue it, so it has actually a loose front! Sometimes you change the way you make cards as you make. On the back of this tag, I also stamped Christmas tree, and wrote some personal message. 

And, the ornament I found for my best friend from college, she took a couple of pictures of it on her tree after she received it! When I saw this ornament at nearby Hallmark store in November, I thought of her, and I bought it. I wrote her name and my name on the back of this ornament in black sharpie with "2021". 

Sometimes, it's fun to make different shapes from just a regular, two folded card. 

Again, hope y'all had much better holiday season than I did. lol 😊 

Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Weekend is almost here! Love, Eve

Happy Holidays ~ #1

LOL, well, Christmas has come and gone, ... a month ago! I did make a couple of cards but I was super busy at work. Due to "ongoing pandemic", work made me even more tired in holiday season. I finally found some time to upload my cards... Hope y'all had a much better "holiday season" than I had. 😊 

This card was for my Godmother. 

Two years ago, I purchased this house die set, and made this card below, but this year, I purchased the "gingerbread house add-on" die set and made this card above. I put some paste on those yummy gumdrops to look little more realistic to the regular card stock. I would've put glossy accent or something on the berries but I found the paper which gives that similar effect, so I die cut that paper with the berry die. 

I love this house die! 

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! And, Happy Australia Day to Aussie friends! 

Hugs, Eve
