Baby Steps

I don't use gray to often but love this color combination. How cute would this be to give to someone who just had had a little baby boy! These would also be easy to make into invitations or thank you cards and would not take long to make several. I was originally going to use Certainly Celery instead of Marina Mist but didn't like it with the Basic Gray. I hope you don't mind all the baby stuff, I will change it up with some scrapbook pages in a few days!

To make this card:

Stamps - Baby Steps

Ink/Markers - Basic Gray and Certainly Celery

Card Stock - Basic Gray and Marina Mist

Other - Polka Dot Embossing Folder and 5/8" Marina MIst Grosgrain Ribbon

Have a great Day!

Baby Bundle!

I am having fun making all these baby cads. I think the little baby head peeking out of the stroller is so cute. I made several of these cards using different colours.

To make this card:

Stamps - Baby Bundle and Short and Sweet

Ink/Markers - StazOn Black, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery and Blushing Bride

Punches - Scallop Edge

Other - Pretty in PInk 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon

Have a great Day!

Baby stuff!

I will be posting lots and lots of baby projects, I am attending a baby show at the end of the month so that is pretty much all I have been making. I don't use wheels very often but I really like this one. I think I like it because there is so much to colour in so you can really change it up to use it as the focal point of your project rather than the background. I am pretty sure I will purchase more wheels now that I have gotten good at using them, I found that I just waisted paper before.

To make this card:

Stamps - Baby Tees wheel and Sweetness Unlimited

Ink/Markers - StazOn Black, Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze, Bashful Blue, Daffodil Delight, Crumb Cake and Real Red

Paper - Chocolate CHip, Crumb Cake and Whisper White

Punches - Designer Label

Other - Polka Dot Embossing Folder

Have a great day!

Trucking!

This month is 2 years since this picture was taken, where does time go? I still remember this day, he kept sliding out of the dump box. When ever we go back to the photo studio he looks so big beside this truck, he definitely does not fit in the dump box anymore.

I stamped the background using the truck stamp and VersaMark. I always put Crystal Effects on the windows of the truck stamp, it finishes it off nicely.

Have a great day!

Valentine's Page

I wanted to make a Valentine's scrapbook page that featured the new Lots of Love Letter Press plate and the Red Glimmer Paper. I am hoping to see more of the Glimmer paper in different colors in the Summer Mini. I recently bought the crimper so I had to use it somewhere on the page so I crimped the card stock and then punched the hearts.

To make this Page:

Ink - Real Red Craft

Card Stock - Basic Gray, Whisper White and Real Red

DSP - Love Impressions

Punches - Full Heart and Heart

Ribbon - Basic Gray 5/8" Satin Ribbon

Letter Press - Lots of Love

Other - Red Glimmer Paper and Crimper

Thanks for stopping by!

Valentine Robots

Aren't these robots the cutest, I cased them from Shelby Fawver. I am waiting a reply to see if she has a blog for me to link. I made this scrapbook page for my monthly club, they all seemed to like it! I chose a Valentine's theme for mine but it could be used for anything. I am sure I will be making these robots again. I laughed the other day when I was going through my current Catalogue and realized that these robots are copied from the Best Bots Forever stamp set.

To make these robots you need:

Circle Robot - Circles # 2 die (largest circle), Jewelry Tag, Heart to heart, circle form Itty Bitty Shapes and Word Window Punches

Square Robot - I cut a square the size I wanted, Jewelry Tag, circle from Itty Bitty Shapes and Word Window Punches

Half Oval Robot - Frame Oval Scallop (Cut a little more than half way) Jewelry Tac, circle from Itty Bitty Shapes, and Word Window Punches.

I used the Basic Blank and Basic Gray Markers to draw the lines and sponge the edges.

Have a great day!
