Fun and Fast Notes Baby Card

I hardly ever use this set,,,it's a shame because there are so many nice images...this is a quick baby card using the pram from Fun and Fast Notes. I have used small buttons for the wheels and added a few punched flowers and some leaves from the XL Bird punch

Fancy Flower Punch Card

I made this card for challenge 116 over at Late Night Stampers...this weeks challenge is to use flowers. I have punched three XL Fancy Flowers and spritzed them with water, scrunched and crumpled them then added a brad to the centre. The bud was made by using just one flower and after spritzing it I just rolled it up. The small leaves are from the XL Bird punch and the larger leaves are hand cut. The white background was embossed with the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder and I have added a row of pearls under teh designer paper (level one hostess set). The quote is from the stamp set Every Moment.

Santa Card

I love this card...I have seen several versions of him in blog land so I am unsure of the original creator. I used the XL bird punch for his mo, large oval for his nose, 3/4 circle for his eyes, large oval for the holly leaves (taking bites out with the 1/2 inch circle punch)...and the rest is cut freehand. Kinda cute I think!

Engagement card



I had to make an engagement card but I don't have any sentiments for that occassion so I just went with a lovely dovely theme (so not me lol) I have used up some retired designer paper and punched two love birds with the XL bird punch. The sentiment is from Vintage Vogue.

Since I had a scrap of Cherry Cobbler cardstock left over I made a simple tag to tie to a candy cane. The cute koala is from the Happy Christmas Mate set..

Holiday Lineup

 I will be doing some Christmas in July classes next month so I thought I had better buy a set of Christmas stamps...I love this set "Holiday Lineup". So much fun to colour! I added a little bit of dazzling diamonds to the snowmen to bling them up a bit


These are Santas elves from the same set...love these kooky guys!! I have also done the reindeer but the crystal effects is still drying on that one

I have seen these circle easel cards all over blogland...I have done  a very plain and simple version...quick and easy is my motto!
This week I score some cute little sizzix dies...This shoe is so cute...there is no way I could ever get my big clumpy feet into a dainty shoe like this!! I stamped the Boroque Motif swirl on the background in Pink Pirouette . This is one of my fabourite colour combos.

Of course yo need a handbag to match..I added Kraft cardstock to this one

And lastly my grand daughters Ella and Sophie are having a combined birthday party in October with a Sesame Street theme...Elmo is sooo cute!

...and Cookie Monster is his usual gutsy self! I saw these on Wendy Hawkinsons blog and staright away I know they would be perfect party invites for my two little cuties...That's all from me for now...see you round like a doughnut!

Vintage Card

I love the cherry blossom stamp in the Embrace life set!!For this card I stamped the soft suede background with  a stamp from Vintage vogue.The top note was cut from Water colour paper which I coloured with Pink Pirouette and Regal rose...I rolled the vintage wheel over the XL bird....I think I will redo him, the ink is too dark ...his eyeball isnt showing up either poor thing...will fix it in the morning!
