Oh No Five Oh

I had this idea about a year before I actually made this card and I am so pleased it actually worked. Sometimes an idea and an actual card can look very different lol. 

I do like the fact that digital stamps can be made to any size and I really needed it for this large 8x8 one.

In real life the "five oh" stands out more clearly as it is glossy accented plus it has six layers of grey card underneath.

Balloon Baby Girl

I had all the stuff on my desk after making the balloon boy card so I thought why not make a girl version. The only change was the colours and the clouds. It came together really quickly but the boy version is my favourite lol.

Balloon Baby Boy

There are a few babies due that I have already made my goto design for their older siblings so I needed a new design. I remembered that I had bought this cute stamp from Clearly Besotted and the new distress oxide had just arrived and suddenly an idea grew and before I knew it I had made two cards. Of course I need three so I think I will just replicate this one.

Magical Friends

I made a few of these cards when the "big six turned 4" but as this little girls big sister never got this design I thought I would recreate it but on an A2 base instead of a square and I prefer it.

Of course the ponies are coloured like the ones in the My Little Pony universe, did you expect anything else lol.

She Moves

When I bought this die set from Papertrey Ink I had no idea how tiny the images would be and no idea how to use it either, I saw a card on pinterest that used a different die and I thought I might be able to recreate that. Thankfully it worked but its definitely not my favourite card lol.

Boy Mum

I wanted this to look like my friends screen saver sitting on her marble countertop and I think that I achieved that.

It is not often that a non crafty friend tells me that they have seen a stamp they would like for their card but this is that stamp lol. My friend saw it on a card I had liked on my facebook feed and said is that the one you are using for my birthday lol so I had to go and buy it.

It did remind me of her and her little boy and i hope that she thought so too,

Coffee and Friends

I bought all the RongRong sets when i was last in Florida and although I haven't used them all yet I couldn't resist the newer Coffee one. 

It was such a lovely stamp to colour and one I am sure I will use more, not much else to say except I hope the recipient liked it lol.
