Oh baby!

For my sweet little brand new niece, gorgeous baby girl.

I have used the seasonal Catalogue stamp set Baby, We've Grown. 

and the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set...so versatile.

The colours came together so well.

Daffodil Delight, Basic Grey, Smoky Slate, Melon Mambo for the girly bit and Whisper White.

Love it.

And to go with these cute little beanies...(click here for free pattern)

The bottom one for a toddler I cast on 100 stitches and knitted a length of 14cm before decreasing. The top baby beanie I cast on 80 stitches and knitted a length of 12cm before decreasing.

More baby cards...

I love the way this technique has turned out, in different shapes and randomly matching colours. I think they worked.

By adding a small embellishment to the side adding that little extra dimension...



Using the same random technique I chose colours out of my scrap box and added same colour ink as the card base. I think they worked out lovely too.

and a couple more using the same Baby We've Grown stamp set...

sorry it's a bit blurry, but you get the ideas...

I have had fun, have you???

Regarding Dahlias

Regarding Dahlias stamp is my first time favourite out of the new Annual Catalogue...But there is more...I love the large chevron stamp as well...Here is a card I've made recently and I am very fond of it...Have fun looking.

I've used Smoky Slate, a new colour, for stamping the flower and the happy birthday, and then basic gray as the backing mount. I've then used Melon Mambo as the chevron stamp colouring in behind. I didn't think I had enough colour as a base, hence the block stamp effect..AND I love the way it turned out


In all it took me two days to complete 6 cards and a lot of mucking around with colour combos. lol, But I am happy now...:)

3D Bird and Rolled Rose Scallop Punch

Here are my two favourite embellishments at the moment...We all change ideas regularly...

Here is my little scrap book page I attached to some recycled card for it to stand. And then I thought I should show you how to do the rolled roses...I know there are lots of tutorials out there, but have you seen my 3D bird?? I love it too...







Three dimensional bird easy. Punch 3 birds trim tail and head to beak on 1. Staple 3 together in line of tail to beak. Fold up two birds along staple. Glue wing on with tacky glue (two way glue works awesomely) edges to edges. Attach gem/pearl for eye. Too cute. Instead of stapling you could also sew with the sewing machine, but it takes longer and looks lovely too...


The rolled rose. Punch circle or scallop. Cut in a spiral to the centre leaving a bit of round for the base. Roll tip in towards the centre with the right side inside your roll. Let it uncurl and glue base again with two way glue and push down in centre. Done. Lovely. You could also daub the edges of the rose with the same ink colour to make it more red. Cover up the cut white edge...
