Love

 Over at Less is More this week the challenge is to use any Scrap bits and pieces.  Well here is my 'Scrap Ribbon Box'  LOL!!  I really need to tidy this up.
I normally make C5 cards but this is a bit card left over so I have made an C6 size card.  I have printed the sentiment directly onto the card.  The Heart shape was donated to me some time ago and I don't know who makes this die - maybe someone can tell me.  The ribbon is from my box above and I made the little bow with my bowmaker.

Thanks Chrissie for letting me know that the Die is a cuttlebug one.  No I don't have the embossing folder or the die so I can see money being spent now.  Thanks for that information.

With Sympathy


Over at Less is More this week our challenge is to use Die Cuts/Punches.  I bought this Die a while ago and never got round to using it so I think it looks quite good for this card.  I think is looks very plain but it is a CAS card.  LOL!! The Sentiment is a freebie from Doodle Pantry and I printed it directly onto Pearlescent Card. The Die is from Lea'bilities.

New Babies

 I had to do two cards today for new Babies.  The Baby Boy card is for a couple who's baby has not been born yet but they know they are having a boy.  The image is from The Clipart Fairy and I have coloured it with Promarkers and added some stickles. The Sentiment was printed direct from the PC.  The Gingham paper is from Activity Village.  All other embellishments are from my stash.
















The second card is for a Baby Girl born this week and is from the Grandparents. The image again is from The Clipart Fairy and has been coloured with Promarkers.  The gingham paper is again from Activity Village.  I have added some stickles and Anitas 3d Gloss. The ribbon is from Lidl.  All other embellishments are from my stash. I printed the sentiment from the PC and is cut with square scalloped nesties.

Friend

Over at Less is More this week it has to be a One Layer Card with Stripes being the theme.  I chose a white base card and I made the stripes with my Promarkers.  I have added some paper flowers to co-ordinate the stripes and added a gem to the centre of each flower.  I uses my Stampin Up Stamp for the sentiment and coloured to co-ordinate with the stripes.  I am running late this week but I hopw I am in time for this challenge and that it fits the bill.

The image is an old one from Digi Darla and I have coloured him with Promarkers.  I have embossed the blue square with Swiss Dots Folder and added the sentiments printed from the PC. The buttons and balloon buttons are from my stash and I added two strips of peel-offs for the balloon strings.

Birthday Mum/Daughter

I was asked to make two cards for the same person.  The first one  is made with a white base card with paper from Papermania Capsule Collection and cuttlebug corners.  The sentiment was printed direct from the pc and cut with a Marianne Creatable Die and I added some gems.  The flower was made by Lee (aka CraftyLoops) and the flourishes are a quikcutz die.

The second card is made with a white base card with backing paper from Papermaine Signature Collection. The image is from a Debbie Moore 'Funky Divas' CD and is layered onto white card cut with Nesties.  The Ribbon, Card Candy, sentiment and Peel off Borders are all from my stash.
