Baby Bunny

Hello. 

I've a card to share with you today using a couple of recently released images.  I've used the Some Odd Girl Balloon Bunny and I decided to turn him in to a baby card using one of the fabulous Candy Hearts as one of his balloons.  Really pleased with how it turned out.  Now I just need a baby to send it to.  You might remember last week's card had little leftover stars as embellishments.... this is what they were left over from!!

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

It's time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin'.  

 Our theme this time is Shabby Chic/Distressed.  Now you all know how much I love a challenge like this...... and I was going to do a card that didn't poke fun.... honestly, I was.  But..... 

I've recently bought myself an art journal and this is the first thing I've put in it.  I even channelled my inner Fi to do the doodling round the edge.

Dream It!

Hello. 

I've a card to share with you today from the February release at Whimsy   Today I've used Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful and just created a clean and simple card.  I've used some left over stars from when I used the Slimline Stars Background die - these wee cut out bits are so useful as embellishments so I've now got a pot of stuff on my desk!

Reasons to Celebrate - Part 3

Hello. 

My title almost sounds like an Ian Dury song.  In fact, the original title was part 1 but as it reminded me so much of reasons to be cheerful I decided to go with part 3 instead!

This is one of Craig's birthday cards.  He's the only member of the family not to have had a lockdown birthday so he's now in the club.  However, in April I'll be starting another club.  Second lockdown birthdays.  I've used a few Vera Lane Studio images for this card - in fact the only thing that isn't (apart from the sentiments) is the Pokeball!

Oh Flip

Hello.

I promise that I did not deliberately forget to share this card on Tuesday just so I could use Oh Flip as my title.  Honestly.

I suddenly remembered I hadn't shared it when I was making something else using one of the images from this Vera Lane Studio set (more of that another day)

So here we go, a wee girl making pancakes even though in our house it's a pancake day tradition that Andy makes them!

I made the background using Brushos, first time using them for ages.  Did a few but I chucked most of them.

Love a Rhino

Hello.

So you may remember when it was the Sweet Stampin' love theme I said I'd made about 27 cards - thought I'd better share them! (there might not actually be 27).

This was going to be my card for Andy until a couple of weeks ago - I'll share the card I made later!
