Monster aliens

Another quickie for you - some awesome kids cards!



I saw this design at our Stampin' Up! Convention last year, although it's taken me until now to CASE it!

The aliens are actually monsters from the Make A Monster set. You get to build your own scary creatures using the different bodies and parts!

It should actually be a punched out circle with the alien stamped on the inside of the card, but I forgot to do that before sticking all the layers down, so I just stuck the circle with the alien on top! His spaceship uses the large oval punch and the stars were from a SAB set called So Happy For You.

Pretty cool I think!

Cards for little monsters

I've been doing so much the last few months that I have a big stack of pictures to show you, so today I thought I would do a few at once!



The Make A Monster set is my favourite one for kids. It's just so much fun and you get to create and colour!



Thereare three different bodies in the set and several eyes, mouths and head-things, so you can go mad and make some very strange-looking beings!



And they're not just for kids - many of us have difficulty doing a card for men, so why not appeal to the child inside them and use Make A Monster?! They never grow out of being terrors!



I have combined the set with the Celebrations DSP, Party This Way set, some ribbon and buttons, and used lots of bright colours.

Right, lots to do this week so I must crack on!

Rrraaarrrrr! Monster card for a little monster

Here is a scary little card! This is the awesome new Make A Monster stamp set. You get 15 bits in the set - three bodies, five pairs of eyes and seven mouths and ears/horns/hair. You can build tons of creatures and make great cards for your little monsters. My lovely upline Julie kindly pre-made me this monster and gave me some card, ribbon and a bit of paper from the Celebrations stack so I coloured him in and stuck it all together. The sentiment is from Tiny Tags and the riboon is Old Olive. I think this will be my nephew's birthday card next month.
