Spring Time!

As we all know September always means Spring in our beautiful Country. So to celebrate Spring my Stampin' Up! Team decided to make our Team Swaps Spring Themed! This could be interrupted in any way, whether it ment colours, stamp sets or paper, so long as it was 'Spring' to us it counted!

Here is my Swaps :) 






Stampin' Up Supplies used are as follows - Betsy's Blossoms Stamp Set, 2012-2014 In Colours Classic Stampin' Pads (Raspberry Ripple, Midnight Muse, Summer Starfruit, Primrose Petals, and Gumball Green), Modern Label Punch, and Whisper White Card Stock.

When I receive my Swap back from my team member I'll be sure to feature it! I've had a sneak peek and its GORGEOUS! And uses a set in a completely different way to what it was intended to be used as!

All of these products can be ordered by simply dropping me a line on 0402 906 605 or by emailing me at kirraleighbrooks@gmail.com

Make sure you leave a comment to let me know you popped in!

Until next time,
Keep Smiling

Calling All Monsters!

A few weeks back you might remember a post about me sewing something special for my Godson's 2nd birthday?? Well his party was last Saturday so now I can FINALLY reveal his special gift!

A MONSTER!!! His Mummy and Daddy call him a Little Monster so they found it fitting to have a Monster Party for him! So Aunty Kirra decided a Monster Teddy would be the perfect present for a Little Monster :D






I kinda tought it looks like a frog, and one of the Birthday Boy's Cousin's said when he opened it "Wow! Froggy!" haha. So I guess it does look like a frog, but it's meant to be a Monster :P

And here is the special card I made for him :) 




Isn't the Monster on the front groovy! I used the following Stampin' Up! Punches to create him - Small Heart, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack, 2 1/2" (6.4cm) Circle, 3/4" (1.9cm) Circle and 1 3/4" (4.4cm) Circle. As well as the Wacky Wishes Hostess Stamp Set. 

All of these Punches can be purchased through me, if you would like to place an order, you can contact me at kirraleighbrooks@gmail.com or on 0402 906 605.

Let me know you popped in!

Until next time,

Ships Ahoy!

One of my best friends had her birthday the other day. She is NOT a fan of flowers and all the other girly girly things, so I had to ask her what Stamp Set she would like her card made out of, at least then I knew I couldn't get it wrong :P 

She chose The Open Sea Stamp Set. So here is the card I created for her, which she loved :) 






There was lots of layering and some fun scrunching. 

The following Stampin' Up! Products were used - The Open Sea Stamp Set, Nautical Expedition Designer Series Paper (Retired), Wacky Wishes, Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine, Color Spritzer Tool, Stampin' Write Markers (Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy, Early Espresso, Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake), Sponge Daubers, Adhesives (Tombow Glue, SNAIL Adhesive, Sticky Strip), and Card Stock (Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White)

To purchase any of these products, email me at kirraleighbrooks@gmail.com or phone me on 0402 906 605.

Let me know you popped in!

Until Next Time,

Circus Party Invites

I'm sorry for those who came back last week to see my Circus Party Invites. I have been flat out with the girls, house hunting and keeping house while trying to make calls and organise quotes etc to buy a house. Fingers crossed all works in our favour though! Kirra's Korner might have a new home before Christmas!

Ok so without further ado, here are the much awaited INVITES!!






Incase you were wondering, yes, every one of those circus tents has been fussy cut and the white bits in the canopy were cut out using a pen knife.... Lesson learnt, sooooo much work!

Nothing on these come from Stampin' Up! because I am trying to use up all my non-Stampin' Up! product so I only have the good Stampin' Up! Products in my craft room!

Hope you liked these, let me know your thoughts :)

Until next time,
Keep Smiling
Kirra :)
