Big Bold Birthday

Bit late in posting today, the day is running away with me!! I have had a lovely day so far though, been crafting at my lovely friends house this morning!! Was great to sit and craft and chat and not think about wedding invites and things like that!!!
I took some things to make and one of the items I wanted to make was a card for a challenge on a forum I go on, www.inlovewithstamping.com
The challenge was to use the colour combo Basic Grey, So Saffron, Certainly Celery and Whisper White. I have teamed this with the Big Bold Birthday stamp set which is on special offer!!!
Not a combo I thought would look good with cupcakes but I think I got away with it!!!

Stamped the cupcake in Basic Grey and So Saffron, I achieved the dotty look by stamping off the cupcake frosting to create a paler So Saffron and then stamped over it with the dots stamp.

Lots of dimension on this card, on the cupcake frosting and then the whole layer has been mounted with dimensionals!! I love the taffeta ribbon, it makes tying bows very easy.


Hope you like the card, remember the stamp set is reduced to £19.16 for AUGUST only (its usually £23.95). If you would like to order please get in touch!!


Back tomorrow

Tri-fold baby card

Hello and Happy Friday!! Its raining here so its a bit miserable!!!
I made this card the other week for a commissioned order. I actually made the invitations for the parents who got married last year, lovely to know they have now had a little girl. I think she was 5 weeks early!
The shape has been cut out with my nesties and I have inked the sides of the card with the Nursery Letters wheel in Pretty in Pink.
The image is just like the one I used the other day from FUn and Fast notes and coloured in with my markers in Pretty in Pink.

The details of the baby have been punched out with the ovals and layered up with the scallop oval punch. All tied together with some pink gingham ribbon.
Thats all for now folks

Holiday Album

Hello there!!!!
As promised here is the little project we made on Tuesday night. I got the Planner/Album from my lovely friend and fellow SU demo Bekka. Bekka made me a gorgeous one to store my Monaco photos and memories!
I have used the Pink Flamingo papers to give the album a holiday feel.
The colours used are Cameo Coral (retiring), Summer Sun (retiring) and Real Red (staying).

I used the Just Perfect alphabet for the front and will use this for my photos from France


Please forgive the amount of photos, I have added a photo for each page. I used 5 envelopes to make this album but clever Vicky asked for an extra envelope and she made a Birthday Book!!

The pages inside have been decorated with a mixture of Tiny Tags (on special offer) and Life's a Breeze.

Love this Sun Fun sentiment and Bucket and spade.








Hope you like my album. Please pop over to
Bekka's blog as she has done variety of different albums
Thats all for now, supermarket shopping to do now!
