Baby Bear Baby Card

Yippee it's Friday and it's also the start of a brand new month. The end of the school year is in sight and my boys have 3 weeks left until they break up, which is very much needed. 

Today I am sharing a card I made for a lovely new friend whom I have met through having my new studio. Hazel recently had a lovely baby girl so I made this card for her. Hazel owns the Rainbow Factory which is a wonderful interactive storybook play centre in one of the units on the same site as my studio. I love this place and have been to many of their events with my nephew and niece.

I also gave my friend the gift of Project Life and put her together a little starter pack of Project Life items so that she could make a start on her album for baby, which I am pleased to say she already has! 

 I'm still loving Baby Bear but I think I have run out of projects for you now using it! I had better remedy that quickly!

Ross' 17th Birthday card

Hey there! Last Sunday our eldest boy Ross celebrated his 17th birthday. Some of you will remember Ross as a small boy, he was just 8 when I started doing Stampin' Up! and now he is as tall as his Dad, but a lovely lovely young man. As some of you know he is cricket obsessed and just loves it. Every year I try and come up with a cricket themed card for him and this years was a no brainer when I saw my lovely team member Amanda's card design I knew I had to use it for Ross' birthday card. In fact I have used it for many cards already.

I'm getting a bit of an expert at making these cricket balls now but the stumps were a little harder now that we have no Word Window punch anymore! The green paper is the new Emerald Envy DSP stack and the Son was stamped with the new Labeller alphabet, another must have new product.

I was pleased with how this turned out. Goodness knows what I will make next year!
