Cute Giraffe Baby Card

More scraps being put to use for another baby card.

This one is mail friendly - and not pink! 

I used a tag that wasn't die cut properly,

adding a scalloped edge to the bottom

where it should have had rounded corners like the top. 

The yellow scallop is glitter paper, but it doesn't show in the photo.

Sweet Pink Baby Card

Awwww,  I like how this card turned out using up more scraps

and an old button from my sewing stash. 

The little bear button was somewhat scary looking, 

but I used a Sharpie marker to add 

eyes and a nose to improve it. 

It has hand stitched through the knot of the polka dot organdy bow.

The new mommy could take if off of the card

and use it somehow, to make a hair bow for example.

I have a couple more baby cards to share still,

I was on a roll. Mom had asked me to make one

for her to send for a shower, but I couldn't make just one ! 

I had to give her options, after all ;) 

Thanks for looking , have a great day !

One Little Baby Card

Yet another simple baby shower card.

I'm going to make another one in blue to keep on hand.

The stamp images, card stocks, inks, stampin' pastels, papers 

and punches were from Stampin' Up! , but are all long retired now. 

Thanks for looking =) 

I was lucky enough to see the Super Blood Wolf Moon last night -
and it was over freshly fallen snow!
So pretty - and so cold!!!

Blush Baby Footprints Card

A third baby shower card I made recently.

This one is more time intensive than the two previously shared.

All supplies used were from Stampin' Up!

except the sentiment inside which I

created on my computer and printed out.

The pink color looks a bit odd because it is

actually some old Blush Blossom I have.

Going Gray was also used.

Yes, that is real stitching on the front panel.

Stamps: I'm Here, Riveting and Little Feet wheel

Thanks for looking =)

Pink Elephant Baby Card

This is the second card I made for an upcoming baby shower.

Another pretty simple one and using up some scraps.

I chose to use an elephant (DD Noah stamp set)
on this card because the crib

bedding has elephants on it.

The rubber stamp images and ink are from Stampin' Up!

Background paper scrap, unknown

Plaid paper used for the medallion, DCWV

Texturz plate polka dot, hand cut banners

Thanks for looking =) 

Simple Rubber Ducky Card

We have a baby shower coming up,

so I whipped up a few cards for my Mom to choose from.

This is the first one, a fairly simple one.

The image and inks are from Stampin' Up!

I made a simple cloud mask to sponge 

light blue ink over the create the sky.

A google eye was added for fun.

DD Rubber Duck stamp set

Calendar

I found this calendar at a church fundraiser yard sale last year.

I thought it was a neat idea.

It is dated from 2008.

January and February

(until the 29th) will work this year,

but nothing beyond that since 2008 was a leap year. 

 I'll use it in my craft room for a couple of months.

then dismantle it to repurpose the parts.

I could print out new calendar pages.......

It is two pieces of 12 x 12 chipboard covered with

decorative papers and embellishments.

The calendar is printed on 8 1/2 x 11 card stock. 

I added the photograph under the clear acetate at the top.

Thanks for looking, have a great day !
