Baby Cards

So a few Baby cards on the agenda today.. must say, everytime I make a baby card, the Lili of the Valley stamps come out to play. I absolutely LOVE them! So the baby cards were for a boy and a girl, Nephew and Niece. Really struggled to start with because I couldn't decide on papers and layouts but finally came up with these...

So the Baby Boy card first.

Image is by Lili of the Valley and is called - Little Ducky

The layout is pretty simple but effective. To tie in with the one challenge I am entering, I have made my own sentiment on both cards. But it's "anything goes" for the other challenge.

Baby Girl card second.

Image is by Lili of the Valley - All Our Dreams

Again a simple layout and very girly! Same as above with the sentiment.

Font used is called "Segoe Script"

On both cards, I have used a ribbon, a bow and card candi.

So the 2 challenges I am entering this post into are:

Papertake Weekly - Make Your Own

Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes

Creative day today

Was having a creative day today. Still got loads of ideas buzzing round too but here are the other cards I made.. 

Card One : Diva! Yes, I did draw the swirl and yes I did stick all the gems on individually! Took ages!!

Card Two : Cali Girl...  This image was actually coloured by my Mom. She got all excited when I showed her that I had put the image onto a card :) bless. Just need to add a sentiment.

Card Three : My Guy Ian... a cute & fun boys card.

Sketch Saturday #216

Took a while for me to get my head round the sketch if I'm honest.

The amount of papers I had out was unreal! Think my inspiration had deserted me until I had a light bulb moment. I was conscious of covering up too much of the checked paper then thought, I know.... Vellum! but do you think I could find it?! Well, after half an hour I finally found it! 

So here is the card; 

The image is "Luscious Linda" by Kenny K. I do love these images.

Hearts are punched out and gems have been added because I thought it looked too plain. I also came across my heart corner peel offs when I was tidying up! 

Here's a close up of the hearts & gems;

Not entering this into any challenges but wanted to add it to my blog purely because I was very pleased with it! :) (and plus it's my team! ha)

It was for an order for a Grandad who is 75.

Sweet Stop Sketch - SSS165

Great sketch from Sweet Stop Sketch this week, it really did get the mind working! 

I had an order in for a birthday card with the theme of Cupcakes & Girly but no too girly... what better stamp to use than a Lili of the Valley "Never To Old For Cupcake!" 

So here is the card:

 

The papers are super shimmery! I even stamped the image onto shimmery card, much to my excitment, it stamped fine! 

Here's a close up of the image:

Thanks for popping by :)
