A Different Take on Baby Blossoms

Good Morning!

Well, I managed to get loads done in the garden yesterday, the weather held off although a few times we thought we could feel a spot of rain (the kids were practically rain dancing! lol!) but boy did I ache last night!! I am hoping to get a bit more done today if the weather is kind again...

So today I have a card I made for a challenge Julie set to her team, the jems, it was to case a card from the mini but change 3 things: 1)  the colour combo, 2) an embellishment and 3) the size.

Now shall we have a bit of fun today?? Can you guess which card I cased from the MINI?? I will even give you a clue! I changed the embellishment from a die cut to a stamp ;-)

Answers in the comments section, I will even send out a little prize if anybody manages to guess correctly!

So this cards details, I wanted to see if I could use the yummy Baby Blossoms in a different colour way to the catty, not that I don't love the colour combo (I adore it, tbh) but we need as many different ideas as possible for our stamps, yes?

Card base is Soft Suede, with layers of Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake seam binding, and, as you can see the ole' sewing machine has been back out again ;-)

and this gorgeous spotty frame is in the Baby Blossoms stamp set too, such a great value set wouldn't you agree?

Well I hope you have fun guessing and I am really looking forward to seeing which card you guys think I "cased"

Thanks for stopping by today,

Happy Birthday to our Zoe!

Good morning,

Today is our (not so) little Zoe's 10th Birthday, I know everyone says this but I can hardly beleive it's been 10 years! and she is just growing up so fast at the minute too, becoming a real young lady :-D

Anyway, after yesterdays Tutorial  I promised I would share with you the card, and it is all decorated for Zoe's birthday,

 Broadsheet Alphabet used to write Zoe, Just Perfect Alpha for "today" and the hearts were punched using the heart to heart punch, 

XL Fancy Flower punch out,

and finally sentiment is from Curly Cute, I inked the "Happy" first with markers, then "Birthday" and stamped it underneath, and I got it in the right place first time without a samaj, get me! ha ha! I punched it out with the XL oval punch and edged with scalloped oval punch outs to finish,

Well, I hope you like Zoe's birthday card from us, must dash as I have to get ready for this evenings tea party but I will be back soon with some more loveliness to share with you all,

Stampin' Hugs,

Rich's Birthday

Hello there!

I have been very busy with classes the last two days and what a fun time we have had making candles and matching cards for Mother's Day! Thanks to all the ladies who came this month, and if you want to join us next month the dates are in my side panel, I would love to see you here :-)

Anyways, Saturday was our friend Richard's birthday and this is the card I made for him..

I used the Greenhouse Gala papers which are in the March Frenzy offer this month with 20% off! just £7.00, email me if you "need" some of these ;-) or any other SU! products.

This sentiment is from Perfect Punches and is designed to fit the XL oval punch with a little border, as you can see I chose to cut the first layer out {as there are lines to follow} and then layer the punched oval underneath.

R, C, and H were stamped onto SU! Vellum Card stock using Schoolbook Serif Alpha in Choc Chip. The beer mug is from Cheers to You and the froth was drenched in Dazzling Diamonds with the actual mug being coloured with blender pens (which are also in the March Frenzy promotion)

I also decorated the inside with a strip of off-cut DSP and two lines drawn with the Marker Pens, as you can see from the tiny photo I forgot to photograph the inside before I wrote in the card! doh! but you get the idea, right?

Well, that's today's card for you, I will be back tomorrow with Zoe's invites I have made for her sleepover this weekend, 4 girly girls on a sleepover, that's gonna be such fun, and they want to make a card at some point too ;-)  I will let you know how it goes!

Thanks for visiting today,

Stampin' Hugs
