shopping with baby

A long distant memory of mine, going shopping with my sons when they were babies. I can remember th efirst time we took Tom out in his silver cross pram the pram nearly blew over as we hit a gust of wind ! I must say this card has more of a tranquil feeling to me.


The image is a digi from the  By Lori Designs range. Papers from the girls paperie range. Iused two punches for the flowere and added a blob of liquid pearls to the centres. The round card was cut from Kraft card using The large plain circles by Go Kreate.
Patterned paper - Girls Paperie
medium - copics
Button Twine - The Ribbon Girl
I am entering this card into the following challenges, Charisma Cardz and Dutch Dare Card

A Little bit of fluff goes a long way ...



I am not sure whether I should be saying this publicly but if I 'whisper ' it it should be fine but  I am going to be joining the lovely ladies at Cupcake Craft Challenges  shortly so I thought I would do a practice run and join in with the challenge this week. used the sketch from the Card Patterns blog

I used a Heather Ellis digi image coloured with copics. I chopped up the pom pom braiding and added a fluffy tail and fluffy bobbles onto her shoes.  I have had the gem branch?  no  idea what its real name is,for ages and threaded it through the tag along with button twine in which I threaded some beads onto.

Lots of Layers...


Yep the title says it all. Using lots of layers is unusual for me and as I like to be challenged I thought I would have a go  at the Cupcake Craft Challenge using this weeks sketch over at My Favourite Things.

I found these papers  and flowers at my Local craft store The Hobby House yesterday (I am in love with them).

Oh Molly

I have fallen in love with the Molly Bloom stamps.  I believe that this wonderful image is coming soon to the Ribbon Girl  I cut the bunny stamp up so that it would pop up behind the raised kraft frame which I cut with spellbinder dies. All images are colored with copics. The ribbon, button and twine are also from th eRibbon Girl,
