First birthday boy!

Good morning!
I will have to be really quick this morning as my boys have to dress up for Book Day so I have to get them in their costumes!! Will show photos tomorrow!!
Here is a card my Sister asked me to make for her!! The usual phone call " dont suppose you have time to make me a nice card do you?"
Sometimes I would love to answer "no, but I have time to make you a not nice one!!" Ha ha!!
Anyway, she wanted a card for her friends litte boy who is 1
Bashful Blue all over! Designer papers, ink, cardstock. Stamp from All in the Family and name stamped with .........yes you guessed it Schoolbook Serif!!!

The design on the stars if from Nursery Necessities, a set I dont use often enough! The die cut behind the image is from the set of 4 die cut sheets called Blooms in the catalogue, they are textured and lovely!

Right I had better go and sort these boys out!!

Flight of the Butterfly birthday

Good morning campers!!!
Here is the card that I made for Siobhan's birthday yesterday! I hope she received it yesterday!!!
I love using the sentiment as a focal feature on this card so I coloured it with my marker pens using Perfect Plum and Sage Shadow.

The papers are the Perfect Plum designed papers and the butterflies are of course from the Flight of the Butterfly set (dont forget you can get the matching punch for £10 when you buy the stamp set!)

I love adding little pearls to the centres of these butterflies, the pearls come from the Pretties kit which I LOVE using!

Here is my arty farty angle. Hope you like the card and please come back tomorrow!
Today I have a bit of a bitty day, catching up with bits and bobs etc.....
MY boys have to dress up for World Book Day tomorrow so I have their costumes to finalise!!!

Julie's Jems Challenge Card

Good morning
Firstly I want to start by wishing my lovely Siobhan a very happy birthday for today!!!!!!! Siobhan is one of my lovely downlines - happy birthday my love!!!!
I wont show you the card I have made for SHiv as she may not have it yet so here is a card for a Colour Challenge that one of my other lovely downlines Kate set us! The challenge was to use Pumpkin Pie, Really Rust and More Mustard
I already knew I wanted to use Loads of Love because I havent inked it up for AGES
I also used another set I havent used for a long time, Seeing Spots - a great set for making backgrounds and I love it for male cards.

I have coloured the image in with the Stampin Up inkpads and an aquabrush but I forgot to colour the driver in - Ooopps!!! The sentiment is from the accessories set and the stars are punched with the Star punch (which you can get for £10.00 if you buy the In the Stars co-ordinating stamp set!)

I added a couple of buttons for decoration!!!

I must use these more male images more often as when the boys saw me colouring this in they wanted to come and have a go!! We had a lovely half an hour together!!


Here is Evan colouring with the aquabrush!

Litte cutey!!! ( I am biased I know!)

And her is Ross colouring in a cupcake, I am not sure whether he can get any nearer to the table!!!!!! DOnt think his posture is quite right!!!
Thanks for reading today and please come back tomorrow and I will show you the card I made for Siobhan!
