So here are my cards...

I started off with the adorable 'Hello Baby' stamp set from Craftangles.

I stamped and watercoloured the image and fussy cut it.

I then used a cloud die to cut out little cloud windows.

I used the Craftangles 'starry background' stencil to create the background and stamped the sentiment.

I then added acetate, sequins (Craftangles 'Designer Denim' sequin mix) and blue plaid paper (Craftangles 'Pretty Plaid' patterned paper) to create the shaker.

I then adhered the stamped and coloured image and die cut clouds to the shaker panel.

I then adhered this to a white card base to finish the card.

For my next card, I have used the sentiment from the newly released Craftangles 'Dad my protector' stamp set, along with a digital, fussy cut image of a sword, which I coloured using watercolour pencils. To create the background, I used Hero arts unicorn white ink on Craftangles black card stock along with the Craftangles 'Indian motifs' stencil.

I heat embossed the Dad in gold to make it pop!

What do you think?

For the last card, I kept it really simple. 

I inked up the Craftangles 'floral circle background' stamp with 'Rose bud' ink from Memento.

I spritzed it with some water and and stamped it on some smooth white card stock. Once dry, I die cut the panel using Simon Says Stamp stitched rectangle dies.

I then stamped and gold embossed this beautiful sentiment from 

the Craftangles 'Dad you rock' stamp set.

Sweet, simple  and a quick card to make!

I hope you enjoyed these cards. Don't forget to leave me a comment before you hop along to Swapna's blog and leave her some love.

Congrats Grandma and Grandpa

Hey!

I a playing the Retro sketches rs#213 this evening with this card I made for my cousins who are expecting their first grandchild.

I made it using the 'Its a Boy' 6"x6" paperpack from Craft Adda.

I also used baby themed brads from Recollections and enamel dots for interest. 

The heat embossed sentiment on vellum is combined from Hero Arts and Paper smooches stamp sets.

Cute no?

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Good night!

Baby monkey

Hey there!

I am playing the Less is More 'Designer paper in a CAS way" challenge Lucky dip week # 274 today and Happy little stampers CAS inlaid die cutting challenge

along with

the Addicted to CAS 'Plaid' challenge #87.

I took inspiration from Barb Ghig's awesome plaid elephant card to make this card.

I used plaid paper from the Summer Bloom 6"x6" paper pack to die cut the cute Cuttlebug monkey.

I embossed the wahite card topper using the cuttlebug dots folder and inlaid the die cut monkey.

I created a lower panel of patterned paper using the spellbinders scalloped edge die

I tried my hand at handwriting the sentiment on black cardstock for some interest.

I finished the card with some enamel dots from Simple Stories.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Blue giraffe

Hi! 

I am playing with the Craftangles by CraftAdda "Its a Boy" 6"x6" paper pack today.

I just love the variety of the patterns in this paper pack and I have tried to showcase that here.

I used a wooden giraffe button as the focal point, placed on a few circles punched with my EK success and Punch Bunch punches.

I finished off the card with some jute ribbon.

I didn't add a sentiment as I felt it didn't need one. :-)

A cute and simple card.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

A card for twins

I have another card for the Simon Says Stamp 'Something new' Wednesday challenge.

I am also playing the LOVECHALLENGE#1 (NEW) on flickr

For this card, I used the peas in a pod stamp from Studio G and then added a handwritten sentiment.

The background panel is a from the Doodlebug designs 6" paper pack, which I cut using Simon Says Stamp stitched squares.

I also die cut the focal panel using  Simon Says Stamp stitched circles.

the pretty organza ribbons are from my stash.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day!

A baby guest book

Hello and Happy New year!

Today for my official Craft Adda blogpost,  I have a guest book that I made for a new baby.

Since we didn't know if it was going to be a boy or a girl, I decided to use a neutral colour like red and have the pages stamped in pink and blue on the inside.

 Its a simple book...I  cut some mount board to A5 size and covered it with some patterned paper.

I then created the label by printing it on the computer and cutting it down to size. I then layered it with more patterned paper and added the cute boy and girl charms to finish the cover.

To make the pages, I stamped baby motifs in pink and blue onto white cardstock. I then cut the pages to A5 size and go them bound together with the covers at my local stationery store.

We hope this inspires you to create a book of your own. 

If you have any questions or just love our work, please feel free to leave us a comment below!

Have a great day!

Shaker tags!

Hey all! 

Have been away from my computer for the last few days as I was busy making these fun shaker tags in order for a birth announcement. 

I made 100 of them!!!

The square dues are from Simon says stamp and the baby motif stamps are from my stash... Lost the packaging years ago!

This is my first attempt at making shaker tags... And I am thrilled with the way they turned out!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a good night!

I am playing the Friday Mashup challenge 201 with this tag.
