Pink Fun & Fast Notes!

Hi there! Today I have a card that I made for a baby shower I attended yesterday. I had 2 baby showers this weekend, both for girls. :-) This card uses the Fun & Fast Notes Stamp set, along with the Sweet Always Dsp, the SU! eyelet border punch and silver SU! brads. I also coloured in the little buggy with Pretty in Pink marker, adding the dots with Pumpkin Pie marker. I then filled in the area with Crystal Effects, which always adds dimension to your work. I matted the image on several ovals cut from my Nestabilities on the Big Shot. To finish if off I tied two White Taffeta bows on either side of the baby carriage. I really liked the addition of the Pumpkin Pie oval on the card, something different from the usual!! I also thought that Chocolate Chip would have been nice too as a matt. You just can't go wrong with the SU! packages of designer papers, everything seems to coordinate so well and take the guess work out of choosing the right match of colours!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a great day and find some time for stamping!! I'm super busy today with taking DD to her summer course, then her golfing lessons, then I have friends dropping by for the afternoon.....hmmm, guess I had better get busy and clean up that messy stamp studio!! :-)

Girly Lucky Ducky!

Hi there! Today my card share is a baby card for a shower I attended today. I used the Duck from Wagon Full of fun (retired Occasions Mini) and the Sweet Always Designer paper, (retired from the recent Spring & Summer Idea Book). I really love this paper, and as usual, have been hoarding it, knowing its perfect for girly birthday & baby cards! I also used the SU! eyelet border punch, SU! pink brads and the Pink Pirouette Grosgrain ( recently retired as well). I coloured the little Ducky with So Saffron and painted her with Lumiere to make her pearly and kind of sparkly.

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great afternoon!

Happy New Baby!

Good Morning! I've have another Baby Card to share today. This one features the Daisy Die, a cute pink button & the Parisienne DSP, and yes, its yet another retired paper!! I was so disappointed to see this paper retire, I think its so gorgeous! It can be elegant, pretty, soft, subtle and yet bold, all in one package. I also used the Pink Pirouette Grosgrain and the So Saffron Grosgrain, a Martha Stewart border punch (its hard to see in the picture, as its V. Vanilla, beside the saffron polka dot) and a pink button, centered over a piece of polka dot dsp that had been punched out with the 3/4 inch circle punch.

Thanks so much for stopping by,

Lucky Ducky for a Baby Boy!

Hi there! Today's post uses the Wagon Full of Fun set from the Occassions Mini. I bought this set with full intentions of using this adorable duck for Baby Cards! This card is for my Son's best friend & his Wife who just had their first little one a few weeks ago. I got the cutest little outfit for baby boy Jordan ~ wow! was it ever fun to shop for baby clothes again. I also have two showers coming up this weekend, both for Baby Girls, so I had the best time buying both blue & pink baby items!! I do really miss those days, babies were so much fun. :-) Now, Toddler years, well I can't say I miss that quite as much! Both our boys were pretty busy little fellows when they were young. Thanks for stopping by and I'll have a Baby Girl card to post tomorrow!
