One post, two baby boy cards!



A 5x5 inch new baby boy card using  LOTV image and sentiment stamps.  The stripy paper is from DCWV and the blue gingham from a Papermania 6x6 pad. I used the little flower punches from QVC and a bit of blue ribbon.  I edged the mats with a dotted pen line.
The insert was made on the computer.


Another new baby boy card but a different colour scheme, I fancied a change from pale blue!  This one is a large 8x8 inch card. The train and sentiment were cut with my New Arrival Cricut cart and the background card is a glittered flower stock from Hunkydory.  I added a few gems and glittered flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I didn't think this needed a lot of fuss!

Another computer generated insert.

Sorry the descriptions are brief, time is short at the moment!

More Cards!!



This is for my friend's birthday.  The stamp is from Imagination Crafts - Decoupage range. I stamped and coloured the image and then triple embossed it with clear powder to make a tile.  The large butterfly was then stamped and glittered on acetate.  The mat was cut on my Cricut.  I love this card and was proud to give it to my friend who is also a fellow crafter so it had to be a good one!! lol






A double easel card using my Cricut New Arrival cart.  The dp was from a really old CD I have from Bearly Mine.


 A quick and simple get well card for our school cleaner using a free set of stamps from Cards and Papercraft magazine.  I dug out my old Sakura pens to colour the flowers.  The border is a Clarity corner which was in their sale.

 
 Messing about with Sheena Douglass stamps and distress inks and my old H2O paints.  I saw Sheena show this technique of using the the paints directly onto the stamp for the background and then spritzing it with water.  The main image is embossed and painted directly with H2O's.
 Another simple card using a cuttlebug folder, gems and a Kanban greeting.

 
 This was a comission for my hubby's friend - using a Click, Print, Go, My Craft Studio CD.  I buy these and hardly ever use them!!  I used my Cricut for the name and numbers.


Back to basics on this one - it was a comission for a 60th Birthday and I was asked for pastel colours so I fetched out one of my under used medallion stamps.  I remember when these were really popular.  This one is so pretty though, it has a lovely rose design. I simply embossed it with gold wow powder.


A large A4 card for our school computer tech who is poorly at the moment.  I love this image as it's him to a 't'.  It's a Mo Manning digi called Computer Guy which I coloured with Promarkers.  Being a digi I could make it large enough to go on an A4 card.  I used my Cricut for the greeting.  I made the dp from our school logo using a Card Creations Master Card Builder CD.





Cricut and Sizzix come together for this comission for a friend's parent's anniversary. 


Another friend's birthday and another set of Imagination Crafts stamps, a Prima butterfly and Spellbinders dies.  The dp is embossed with gold flourishes and I added a trail of gems.

New blog background and baby Harry!

New blog background and....

A4 card for school to celebrate the birth of baby Harry. I loved how this one turned out - I used my Cricut New Arrival cart and the little babies are Elyzibelles stamps (so sad that they've closed down). Background from Papermania,Wild Orchid flowers finish it off.
