Cute animals

 When I saw the challenge over at Double D Challenge cute little animals, the first thing that I thought of was the little turtle that came in my Spellbinders Advent calendar, he is too cute and comes with the balloon and party hat so it was perfect for our little nephew turning 2 on my hubby's side of the family :) The sentiment banner comes from the advent calendar too and I like how it cuts into the banner to reveal the sentiment.


  • Spellbinders Advent Calendar dies - Turtle, balloon, party hat and sentiment banner dies
  • Spellbinders - A2 matting basics A dies
  • Sassafras - Apple Jack paper


We watched the Eclipse of the sun yesterday and was able to get some yard work done too, so no blogging for me yesterday so once again I am behind but I will be catching up with you all soon :)

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

This is adorable, Connie! Super perfect for your 2 year old nephew. After seeing the variety of cards you've made using products from the advent calendars I finally looked them up. What fun! I'm glad you got to see the eclipse. We were able to see the 2017 eclipse from here. Connie, thanks for playing along with our Cute Little Critters challenge at Double D!

This is so adorable. How sweet would a turtle party be for a kiddo. :) We couldn't see anything with the eclipse because it was tons of clouds and rain all day. I'm glad you got to catch it! xoxo

Cute little turtle card for a sweet 2-year-old. Well, he's 2, maybe not sweet all the time. Lol! Glad you were able to get some yard work done, and also see the eclipse! Couldn't see a thing here - too far out of the path and cloudy, anyway. Hope you get to go outside in the sunshine again this week. x K

Your card for your nephew's second birthday is absolutely adorable! The Spellbinders Advent calendar dies add such charm, especially the delightful turtle with its balloon and party hat. The sentiment banner from the same set is a clever touch, adding a perfect finishing detail to your sweet creation.
