Baby Lamb Card


Hi Paper Lovers....

I did something a little different with this shape card in case you do not have the Gypsy or Design Studio. If I did this card over again...I would have scored the back of the card so the back swung open instead of the front...I dont like the crease in front of the card...BUT I still love it and think it turned out cute!!!

I decided to enter this in Christina's Saturday Challenge... Anything Sparkly!!! Click HERE to head on over to her blog and check it out!!! She is so sweet and so talented!

Tomorrow is Momo's Tuesday challenge AND Thursday the Scrappy Mom's Design Team will be starting sneak peak week of TWO new stamp sets...you heard me....TWO!!! You wont want to miss them...they are SOOOOO FLIPPIN ADORABLE!!! Below is my YouTube video...thanks for stopping by!!!

Baby Gift and Card

Hi Paper Lovers....

Just wanted to share a wall hanging I made for a friend of mine who is having a baby girl named Norah. I have always wanted to cover a canvas and this is my first attempt. I wanted to paint the background but ran out of time...so I covered it with paper =) I didnt have alot of time to work on this so I went with a fence and a tree and grass....I know SHOCKER!!! LOL...sometimes you just gotta go with what you know works =)






Here is the card I made to go along with it. If it looks familiar...I used the same design as my Melon card. Click HERE if you want to see that card. I find...If I come up with a design I really like...I will use it again I just change it up for whatever the occasion might be =) If you have any questions, please email me. I have a CONTACT ME link at the top of my blog. Thanks for stopping by!!!
