Guess who's pregnant??

LOL... NOT ME!!!!!!!!!!!! But it got your attention didn't it?? Well, a colleague of mine IS pregnant so I made this card for her. The image is from Squigglefly, called Pickles and Ice Cream. It is a very simple layout as I printed her out a bit too big so I had to make a taller card (I think it is 9x4). After I took this picture I attached a little charm of baby feet to the ribbon.....it looked like it needed something "baby" on it!! Inside it says, " Here's to 6 more months of cravings!"

Thanks for stopping by!!

Simon Says......New Baby!!!

This week's challenge at Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog is NEW BABY!!! I figured rather than make a baby card, I'd make a baby "gift" for a shower I'm going to soon. This is a set of Thank you cards for the Mom to give to people. I'm sure she is so busy with the baby that she won't even think to go buy any thank you cards! I hope she likes them!!! There are 4 in the picture but I made her a set of 10 cards with envelopes (cards are 3x3).






This cute cute cute House Mouse stamp can be purchased at the Simon Says Stamp Superstore! Go check out their GREAT selection of House Mouse stamps!
Have a great day!

a couple more Valentine's Day cards..

Here are a couple more cards I made for some Valentine's Day cards....

This first one is Tango, by Karen's Doodles....... aren't they gorgeous? I coloured them with Copics & used some shimmery paper, then a piece of sheet music type paper as the bottom mats. Her shoes and the flowers are touched with m Sakura Gelly pen (stardust). Inside the sentiment says "Do you wanna dance?" which is from The Sentiment Salon.

This next image is also by Karen's Doodles......cute cute cute, isn't he?? This one is called Special Delivery. I coloured him wtih Copics too. This is actually a Scrapling card, but I can't remember the dimensions. My laptop is on the fritz so I have to do all my blog posts from the upstairs computer & all my crafty goodies are downstairs 2 levels!! LOL (Can you say LAZY??? LOL)

Thanks for stopping by!!!! Enjoy the rest of the week!!!

The Corrosive Challenge Blog - FANCY FOLDS

This week the challenge at The Corrosive Challenges blog is to create something with FANCY FOLDS! Well, I love making cards with different folds and things so I went on a search of SCS for a technique I had yet to learn! I found this Spring Card there, and believe it or not, I had never tried it!! So, after a few cuts, and a few scores, this is what I came up with...what a fun little card!!!! And it fits into a regular A2 envelope!!! The image is from The Greeting Farm & the cardstock is Pacific Point (SU) . The DP is from a paper pack I got from Wal Mart ages ago. I coloured her with my Koh-i-noor pencils and Baby Oil Gel. I added some stickles and some rhinestones to give it some BLING BLING!!!!

Here is a side view of the card.

I hope you'll join us for this challenge, or at least head over to the blog to see what fancy folds the DT has created for you!!!! Thanks for stopping by my blog.....and for the comments....I appreciate them more than you know!!!! THANKS!!
