Welcome Baby Card

While I have baby on my mind... Here's a Welcome Baby card!
Stamped, copic colored and glittered. I love the designer paper... by KI Memories "It's a Boy".
The buttons are coconut buttons and dyed brown. I machine stitched the seam in white.

I will have some this and the girl version card up on etsy and delivered to stores soon :)

I'm considering taking an online class that Stacie recommended.21 Secrets: An Art Journal Playground. I love learning new mixed media techniques! Check it out... it looks like fun!

Giraffes are sooo CUTE!

Another baby card. This one is a little different in size. I thought it would match the length and shape of the giraffe's long neck :)

Stamped, distressed and raised on dimensionals... swarovski crystals and beautiful Basic Grey paper. Two corners of the layer are tucked into the brown layer.
Envelope is whisper white.

Quick Baby Girl card

Hi... just passing thru today!

Had a baby girl card to share that I made last week... a onesie is stamped on to polka dot paper and then cut out. The bunny is stamped onto the front and flocked with white flocking and glue. I made a wire hanger out of 22 gauge copper wire in silver and put everything together on dimensionals. Stamped more polka dots on the yellow layer and raised that layer as well.
Stamped sentiment.


Love baby cards!

Baby boy card!

Since my sister is getting ready to have her first baby boy .. I've had a lot of baby on my mind! Today I made this cute baby elephant card for expectant parents!

I just love the simple-ness of this card... and yet the dry embossing and the metal frame really make it pop. It has a little bit of the "Pottery Barn" style to it... :)

Well as for other news... I apologize for not getting the tags and valentine's to Art Partners this week. Because of the snow, I never got the rest of the supplies... but all is well now! I will be sending out first thing on Monday!

I hope you have a great weekend!

SnuggleBUNNY...

Today's card is made with the stamp set: CUDDLEBUNNIES by My Favorite Things (www.mftstamps.com).
Reminds me of my many nights with my girls.
Every piece is stamped on several different papers and cut out for some paper piecing. The moon piece uses a mulberry paper with self adhesive. The star is glittered with ultrafine glitter by Stampin' Up!.
machine sewing with white thread around border of card base.

Happy Monday!

Just checked the weather forecast... looks like we may get more snow on tues nite, and again on Friday or Sat and then maybe again next week! This has been an unusual winter. We really never this much snow. Either way, I like the snow. I just don't like how it saps my days away and I get backed up in chores and work...
Today I did get right down to crafting. I made a few cards that are now up on etsy.
Here's a peek!

A quick update on a local craft show coming up.
