Baby Pink


I really enjoyed making this one-it took me all evening and i kept bringing out box after box of my craft stuff to try and find things to work with. I must take a pic of the state/mess I get into just making a single card!
Anyway this one I based on Mojo Monday Sketch #185







And the colours-well, HSS #62: Pink-a-licious had just the right scheme to work with!





And then to top it off i'll enter it into  SUO Challenge 16: Animal cards as i have an elephant and duckies!)

Baby blue

Time to make a baby card! This one i've entered for Friday Mashup #37: Animal Challenge - I managed to squeeze in the elephant from "out of the box"! I also used the the "Nursery Letters" stampin' around wheel to create the pattern on the baby vest.
[I had to take the photo with flash-sorry!]

Stamping all the way ~ b'day card


I couldn't sleep much last night so in the end decided to do something productive-and make a card!
I got out my Stamp' Up! stamp sets and used the following:
I stamped the background first using a flower from 'Out of the box' and one from 'Polka Dot punches'. The central motif is from 'On a pedestal'. I stamped these bits separately, cut them out and raised them a bit from the page with foam dots. The little cherry stamp was then great to fill the gaps where the background shapes don't meet exactly.
And voila ~ I made a card!

And so I begin...

Well, I've been perusing the blog-o-sphere and getting quite addicted to craft, scrapbooking and stamping sites; so much so that I think its about time I have a go at one myself. Not sure when I will get time to update it, but lets see what happens.

First off, here's a piccy of a baby card I made after seeing how it was done on Michelle Last's blog.
Really cute and SO simple, just need a new born to send it to now!

Every so often I come across a site that I think it so beautifully laid out in content and style that I have to immediately add to my favorites. Just recently these have been those by Monica Gale & Jenny Moors
