Baby in a pod

I found this card today in my box of cards that I forgot to post!  I made it well over a year ago when I was still on the CC Designs team.  Unfortunately, I don't think you can buy this stamp any more, but I think you'll agree that it is adorable!

So cute!!!  The papers are by DCWV and I used a Memory Box die for the background.  The heart is a CC Designs die and I used a very sweet My Favorite Things scallop border die.

Now all I need is a friend to get pregnant and have a baby so I can give this to her!

Thanks for visiting - I will be back on Friday with my La-La Land Crafts and Alicia Bel DT posts - until then, enjoy the rest of your week!

Did you ever want your very own pony?

I know I did!  And I saved every penny when I was a young girl so I could take the long bus ride to the nearest stables to ride a pony!  But alas, I never did get to own my very own but I do get to see them nearly every day now I live in the countryside.  *Sigh* - such beautiful creatures!

But, hey, you haven't come here to hear me reminisce!  But the card I am sharing today brings back those memories and I just adore the new Annabel Saddle Up stamp now available in the Lili of the Valley store.

Isn't she pretty?  And I also used the pretty papers from the Pastel Dreams pad and the sentiment is from the Scrolls Sentiments set.  I used Lawn Fawn's Stitched Scalloped Border and the that's a CC Designs Cutter grass border die.

Thank you for visiting me today - have a great day and I will see you again soon!

Sushi love!

I made a birthday card for a male friend who loves sushi so I just had to use the super cool Rice Rice Baby by SugarPea Designs...

I will never get bored of creating with this cute guy and the matching sentiments in this set are so brilliant!  Take a look at the whole set...

I used my Embossalicious embossing folder and Doodlebug papers.  I also used my CC Designs woodgrain stamp on kraft cardstock for a bit of contrast.  I topped it off with some Dew Drops - I have trillions of these so I'm hoping they will become trendy again so I can use them up!

I hope you enjoy the rest of your Saturday and I'll be back tomorrow with my Lili of the Valley DT post - see you then!

Friendship is the sweetest flower

Goodmorning everybody!  I'm here with another Doodlielicious Diva make!  Today I'm showing you a card using one of the new gorgeous digis called Abby Girl...

I wonder if Whimsie Doodles illustrator Melyssa just looks in her wardrobe and has all of the gorgeous outfits on her digis in there?!  I matched her up with Doodlebug papers and used My Favorite Things flower dies and CC Designs Olive Branch die.  And don't you love that sentiment?  It's from the SugarPea Designs Love You Bunches set.

I'll be back tomorrow with my La-La Land Crafts GDT post - toodle-oo 'til then!

Easter sweeties!

I can't believe it's Easter next weekend!  I have to get my skates on and make a few more cards.  Luckily I had the gorgeous Lili of the Valley Easter Sweeties stamp to hand so I made this...

I love this stamp - it so so adorable!  I fussy cut out all of the duckies used a sentiment from the Simply Sophisticated set.  I also used My Minds Eye Notable papers and CC Designs Cutter grass die.

Right, I'd better go and make some more cards!  :)

This year's Mother's Day cards

I've left making our Mothers Day cards a little late this year - better get them in the post tomorrow to make sure they get there before this weekend!  And this year I decided to go down the grown up elegant route instead of my usual cute stamped makes.  Here they are - one my mum...

And one for my MIL...

The flower is made with My Favorite Things Large Hybrid Heirloom Rose die and the greenery is from My Favorite Things Large Leaf Filled Flourish die, with a large ivory pearl popped in the middle.  The background is a Papertrey Ink Quatrefoil cover plate and the sentiment is from the CC Designs All Women set stamped on a Simon Says banner die cut.  The papers are from My Minds Eye but I couldn't tell you which ones because they were scraps - sorry!

I'm quite liking my grown up makes - even Steve liked them!  I will have to experiment more with these especially now that I've recently stepped down from some teams so I can experiment more freely.  It's so nice not having loads of DT commitments!  And I'm lovin' the teams I'm on so it doesn't feel like hard work being on these.

Okay, I'm off now - gotta make my niece's birthday card and I want it to be as special as her!

I dig you

There's a new SugarPea Designs challenge starting today and the theme is Embellish It - get those bits and bobs out to decorate your project!  Here is my DT take on it...

Well, most of you will know that I'm not very good at embellishing, but I think I did wonders with this heart and button, lol!!  And I just love this SPD Go-pher It stamp set - look at his sweet smile!  I matched him up with My Minds Eye papers (I think, they were just scraps!) and used My Favorite Things fishtail banner dies.  The heart die is by CC Designs.
