Pedal Presents Thanks card

This is one of the hostess stamp sets in the autumn winter mini catalogue- I think it is so cute. I actually made a couple of these- one of them I made into my Mums mothers day card!
You can never have too many thanks cards in your stash- they get used more than any other (I think!)
Stamps: Pedal Presents, Thank You Kindly
Card: Whisper white, riding hood red, marina mist
Ink: Basic black, riding hood red. So Saffron, peach parfait, riding hood red, bashful blue, marina mist, blushing bride, basic gray, pear pizazz stampin' write markers
Accessories: riding hood red pleated ribbon, dotted scallop ribbon border punch, crochet thread, dimensionals

Baby Bundle

Here is the baby card I made for my friend Bek- she had a beautiful little girl back in February & I am only just getting around to giving her a card- I am a terrible friend...

Ive been looking at this set for a while now & have only just got it this month & I thought I would try making it into a layer card. I used to make these quite a bit when I first got into card making many many years ago. I haven't raised every layer with dimensionals- only a couple but there are three layers of the pram plus an extra layer for the wheels & heart. By having these layers I was able to tuck the accessories in easier.
The nappy bag is from the packed for mum stamp that is in the current autumn winter mini catalogue. Ive stamped that twice & filled it with the bottle, rattle, duck & Ive left the scarf there as I thought it would pass as a baby wrap! Ive just hooked the little jumpsuit over the handle as is their out shopping!

Pansy Flower Pot

I've been wanting to try these pansy's that are all over the internet at the moment that are made with the butterfly punch but I just havn't had time until now! Once I had a couple done I thought that I'd make them into a flower pot card- I haven't made one of these in a couple of years!

The pansy's are relatively easy to make- you just need 2 1/2 butterflies, ink pads, makeup sponge & a bone folder!
Stamps: Canvas (retired)
Card: baja breeze, always artichoke, cajun craze, very vanilla
Ink: not quite navy, elegant eggplant, always artichoke, cajun craze, basic black & always artichoke stampin' write markers,
Accessories: butterfly punch, heart punch, 1 3/8" circle punch, very vanilla taffeta ribbon, fire circle brads, glue dots,make up sponge, mat pack, bone folder
