Docraft Forever Friends Kraft Notes Baby Girl Card

 

Hi everyone 😊

Today I am sharing a Baby Card that I made for my niece and partner who just had their first baby - a beautiful little girl.  So I am a Great-Aunt again for the 11th time!  Wow, I feel so OLD!  

This is also my card for the following Challenges:  

Ellibelle's Corner - Craft Wednesday Challenge for July - Anything Goes

Splitcoaststampers - Free for All Friday F4A693 - Oh Baby Baby! - Share your Baby Creations 

Shopping our Stash - SOS501 - No Stamping Allowed - where they don't want you to use your stamps but instead use patterned paper, stickers, die cuts, stencils, pictures etc.  

Please click on the underlined link to go to their respective Challenge. 

The main image is diecut decoupage by Docrafts from their Forever Friends Kraft Notes collection.  There aren't many layers so it was super-easy to put together with 0.5mm dimensionals.  You can see the dimension in this photo:

The bottom daisy designer paper is also from the Docrafts Kraft Notes Design Stax 6" x 6" paper.  The top pink designer paper is from the 12" x 12" pad and was dry-embossed using my Big Shot and Crafter's Companion Die'sire Embossalicious EF-6 embossing folder which added some lovely texture to my card.  I have had this folder for many years and is long-retired.

I diecut some small hearts from pink glitter cardstock using an Impression Obsession die - Mini Hearts Row - and glued them on using Tombow Mono Aqua glue around the main image panel.  The 3 larger hearts at the bottom RHS were punched from pink glitter cardstock using a Carl CP-8 Heart Duo punch.  I added a strip of pink glitter cardstock across the centre which tied everything together.

Everything is layered onto an Anko white card base using my favourite glue - Tombow Mono Multi.  

Finished size is 5-1/4" x 5-1/4" or 134mm x 134mm.

Thanks for visiting my blog today.

Forever Friends Baby Girl card

Hi blogging friends

Seems like ages since I posted - well, it feels like it.  Currently I am caring for another family member as they recover from major surgery done late in April so I don't have much time to craft.  It's been a bit of an emotional rollercoaster ride since January with the shock of diagnosis so we are all feeling quite exhausted emotionally and physically.  Personally, it's also a bit of a juggle for me having 2 family members with medical issues/appointments and helping both of them - but I am very lucky to have great neighbours who can lend a hand when I need it - and just having someone to have a quick chat to about it all helps so much.  The great thing is that my loved one will make a complete recovery - it is really just time to heal from the surgery.

Today I am sharing a baby girl card that I made for my nephew and wife to welcome their first baby.  I made this card a while ago but couldn't share it here until I knew they had received it (they live in another State).

The main image is by Docrafts - Forever Friends and is from some years ago.  I don't know what it's called as it just has a number on the side.  From memory, I bought it from The Glitterpot in the UK when I used to buy more stamping stuff from overseas. 

I stamped the image onto Ranger Watercolour cardstock using Ranger Archival Jet Black ink and coloured it using Faber-Castell + Lyra watercolour pencils and a #2 round paintbrush.  I paper-pieced the nappy by stamping the image again onto a scrap of pink gingham designer paper.  I went around the edges with a black Copic multiliner to hide any white edges then glued that on top of the stamped image.  I added a little bit of shading around the edges of the nappy with a pink Tombow marker.  I inked up just the paw again and restamped, coloured it and cut it out then popped it up on a 1mm dimensional.

The sentiment is by Impression Obsession - Sentiments 1 WP16 clear set - which I bought years ago but is still readily available.  It's a fantastic set to have because you can mix and match tons of sentiments for any occasion.

I added a pink Kaisercraft enamel heart then added Kindyglitz Crystalina glitter glue to it as well as to the tag on the nappy.  Here is a close-up:

All the circles and scalloped circles were diecut using Lifestyle Nesting Circle/Scalloped Circle dies.  The lacy circle is a die by Nellie Snellen Multiframes Doily Flower MFD020 and the main panel is up on dimensionals.

The dry embossing was done with a Cuttlebug Jamara 5" x 7" embossing folder.  I trimmed the panel underneath the image to 1/8" using my Perfect Layers Tools.

I felt like I should add some more embellishments like flowers or rhinestones or ribbon or twine or ? but I had my usual "embellishment brain freeze" and thought that if I let the card sit on my desk overnight surrounded by all the pink embellies that I got out, the fog would clear and I would know what to add....but nope, I just couldn't think of what to add and gave up - and then spent over 30 minutes putting away all the stuff I got out...sigh.....

Things should settle down here at home by about mid-June so I hope to get back into the swing of cardmaking by then. 

In the meantime, if you want to look at cute pictures of my cat Ruby, click on the link to Instagram (which is on the left-hand side of my Blog).  I also love taking photos of sunrises/sunsets.

Penny Black Bundle of Joy - baby girl card

Hi blogging friends

Did you notice that I made a new Blog Header?  I thought it was time to update my blog a little as I have had the same header for a couple of years - and thought it would be fun to have a few of my favourite cards included.  The first photo is a scene from Bright in north-east Victoria - one of my favourite holiday destinations.  What do you think of my new header?

Here is the baby girl card that I promised I would share after finally finishing it last night:

Apologies for the ribbon shadow.  I tried taking a photo with the sun directly on the card but it made the image all washed out so had to put the card at a slight angle instead.

The adorable little baby hedgie/flower frame is from the Penny Black clear set Bundle of Joy and was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with Prismacolor + Derwent Coloursoft pencils and Odourless Minerals Spirits.  I lightly chalked around the image with blue chalk.  I went to town with the glitter and added glitter to all the flowers as well as the frame - which you can a bit better on the photo below.  I corner punched this main panel and popped it onto pink cardstock that was diecut using one of my new Spellbinder Decorative Labels One dies and my Big Shot.  Oh my gosh - I LOVE these dies - they are so pretty and feminine.  I added a little pink gemstone in each corner then popped the panel up on dimensionals.

The embossed white panel was embossed using a Crafter's Companion Die'sire Embossalicious EF6 Floral square embossing folder then corner punched.

The pink base was made using a Martha Stewart Vintage Floral punch-around-the-page corner/edge punch.  I also added a pink gemstone to each corner.

I managed to take another photo when the sun went behind a cloud for a few minutes - it does make the pink look a bit different though and is probably closer to what it is in real life - but it makes the card look rather dull, lacking in texture and not so pretty.  You can see the gemstones and glitter a bit better in this photo.  Amazing how much different a photo can appear just with changing light conditions from one minute to the next!

Lastly, I made a pink bow with my Bow Easy and sewed on a pink heart button, added Fray Stop to the ribbon ends and glued the bow on with some Fabric Glue.

I did a quick little inside mirroring the pink cardstock Decorative Label panel on the card front.  I diecut the white sentiment panel using my Big Shot and Labels One Nestabilities die.  The sentiment is from the Nursery Necessities set by Stampin' Up and I added a tiny little pink heart at each end of the sentiment which I punched using my Arrows Border punch (they are the leftover punchies that look like tiny hearts to me).  I added some glitter to the hearts as well.

This card will be going to my neighbour who had a baby girl a couple of days ago.

Stampendous Bear Safety Pin - a new baby girl card!

Hi blogging friends ,

One of our neighbours had a baby girl and this is the card that I made for the occasion:

I used my Prismacolor + Derwent Coloursoft pencils and Odourless Mineral Spirits and paper stumps to colour the cute little teddy bear nappy pin image which took oh, all of 5 minutes!   I used my pearlescent chalks to add blue, pink and lemon around the image which added a lovely, sparkly yet subtle sheen - alas, very difficult to pick up with the camera but I hope you can see a little bit of soft colouring - it looks so pretty IRL.   

The sentiment is by Stampin' Up from their Nursery Necessities set.  I added a line of Basic Grey pink rhinestones underneath and used my Arrows Border punch to punch the tiny little pink hearts around the image (the leftover punchies from using the punch look like tiny hearts).  I added some pink Kindyglitz to the bear's cheeks, the pin itself and the tiny pink hearts.  Here is a close-up of that cute little bear:

The gorgeous embossing folder I used on the white cardstock is by K Kingdom called 'Flowers and Dots' which originally came from Fat Cat's Card Corner in Australia but is no longer on their website.  I did a bit of a search on the web, but couldn't find it anywhere.  Maybe it has been discontinued? 

And here is a pic of the card inside which is the same layout as the card-front except that I reversed the colours:

I used the same embossing folder for the pink cardstock and the sentiment is from the same Stampin' Up Nursery Necessities set - there are lots of fantastic sentiments in this set.  I added a Basic Grey pink rhinestone at each end.

Lastly, I added the white dotted pink organza scalloped ribbon (LOVE this ribbon!!), sewed on a pink button and added some Fray Stop to the ribbon ends, then glued on the pink organza flowers which I have had in my stash forever!  They came with the white pearl already sewed on in the centre.

And here is a pic of the gift that will be accompanying my card.  More teddy bears of course......sorry it's such a lousy photo.  I took it really early in the morning and the light wasn't very good at the time.  Just LOVE that cute teddy bear bib and the teddy rattle.  The gift bag was bought as I have no idea how to make such a large bag!

I am entering my card in the following challenges:

Splitcoaststampers - Free for All Friday - F4A100 - Have a heart or two - where you project must have at least 2 hearts.  I have 6 hearts around my image.

Penny Black: Bundle of joy - baby girls are so sweet!

Hi blogging friends  

It  feels like forever since I last posted.  It all started when I dropped a Spellbinders die down the back of my chest of drawers which holds most of my craft stuff.....nuts.......which meant I had to move my plastic boxes which contain more craft stuff off the top of the chest of drawers so I could move the drawers away from the wall....and then I thought I should have a tidy-up while I was at it......yadda yadda yadda.....and before I knew it, a week had gone by before I finally retrieved my die!  But, my craft room looks so much neater and I was able to get together a nice pile of crafting magazines which I put in the magazine swap box at my local library.  I was so pleased that after I dropped the magazines off and went into the library for a browse, by the time I came out, most of the magazines had already been snapped up by a very happy little group of ladies

Anyway - onto my card........  I made this CAS (Clean and Simple) card for our family's Osteopath and his partner who have just become a parents for the first time to a little girl (obviously).  He and his partner had a bit of rough time with the pregnancy and the baby came very early and is still in hospital in a humidicrib.  The baby is doing very well but they are not allowed to hold the baby yet and had to go home without the baby!  I can't imagine how that must feel - to go home without the baby - but they are keeping busy buying baby things and setting up the baby's room as they had virtually nothing ready:

The gorgeous embossing on the pink cardstock was done with one of my fav folders by K Kingdom.  I coloured the image with OMS and Prismacolor + Derwent Coloursoft pencils and added some Kindyglitz Crystalina to the teddy's bow and the nappy pin on the hedgie.  I cut out the image and popped it up on 1mm doublesided foam squares. 

The tag is a fabby new die and clear stamp set by My Favorite Things.  The set comes with several sets of dies apart from the tag itself including the baby growsuit which I have used on my tag.  There is also a variety of sentiments and other images in the stamp set.  Love it!  The dies use the same sandwich in your Cuttlebug as for Spellbinder dies.  I added a strip of pink rhinestones underneath the sentiment.

Once I tied on the ribbon, I glued part of the tag to the ribbon so it would stay in the right place then glued a heart-shaped button to the bow centre.  Here is a little close-up peek:

This card fits the following Challenge:

Splitcoaststampers - Ways to use it WT325 - Dying for Diecuts - where you have to show them your diecuts.  Of course, I used my new tag die set.

Have a great week and thanks for stopping by

Penny Black: In a nutshell baby boy card and NEW Kingdom embossing folders

Hello blogging friends!  Thanks for stopping by :-) 

My blogging friend Sam from Ryemilan's Stamping and Scrapbooking had a little baby boy recently and this is the card that I made to welcome his arrival.  Sam has been a fantastic supporter since I started blogging and makes beautiful jewellery, takes spectacular photos and makes gorgeous cards.  I especially love Sam's punch art cards - I hope that you have a chance to have a peek at them!   

The hedgie is a Penny Black stamp (no surprise there LOL!) which I have had forever but is still as cute as a button.  I coloured the image with pencils and OMS,then added some glitter to the flower petals and lightly chalked around the image with blue chalk including some lemon and blue pearlescent chalks here and there (but you can't see it that much in the photo) - very pretty and shimmery IRL.

The embossing on the white cardstock was done with a new embossing folder by K Kingdom called "Flowers and Dots" which I had never heard of until recently, but the 2 that I have emboss beautifully and use the same sandwich as other embossing folders in my Cuttlebug.  

The lacey blue circle was diecut with my Cuttlebug using a Nellie Snellen Lacey Circle multiframe which I then ran through my Cuttlebug using my Textile embossing folder.  The lemon circle was diecut using a Spellbinder Circle Nestie.  The blue fancy edge was diecut using another Nellie Snellen die:  border-2 MFD023.

The tag was diecut using one of my Cuttlebug Tiny Tags dies then I ran my Sky Blue ink pad around it so it would stand out a little from the white background.  The yellow button on this tag is actually a brad which I bought some time ago from Target.  This sentiment is also by Penny Black and is up on .5mm mounts (dimensionals).

The ribbon was attached in 2 separate elements and the bow itself was made with my Bow Easy.

The butterflies were punched and I added a pearl to each of them - but the pearl on the blue butterfly started life as a white pearl which I coloured with a blue Bic Mark-It texta as I didn't have any blue pearls in my stash. 

Here is a pic of the card inside (I'm still keeping up my New Year's Resolutions of doing the insides of my cards before I move onto the next card - yay!!):-

To do the embossing on the card inside, I took a separate white square card and simply embossed both sides, then attached them to the inside with double-sided tape - I did have to trim the LHS a little so that the cardstock didn't cover the fancy blue edge.  I mimicked the front of the card to do the sentiment panel, then added another punched butterfly.  BTW, this sentiment is a retired stamp by Elzybells Art Stamps.

Challenges:

I am entering this card into the Simon Says Stamp Challenge of "Anything goes" - nice and easy.

Well, that's about it for now.

Peachy Keen Sleeping Teddy baby girl's card

Greetings and thanks for visiting :-)  

Sssh - be very, very quiet - you don't want to wake the bear!

I suddenly realised that I hadn't uploaded this baby card to my Blog - just to my on-line galleries at Splitcoaststampers and Fat Cat's Card Corner.  Duhh!!  A close friend of mine has become a grandmother again to a baby girl, so this is the card I made for her.  Most of her grand-children are pretty much grown-up and this baby has been long-awaited by her son and DIL - so my friend is over-the-moon to have a new granddaughter in her life.  It seemed fitting to choose an image with a moon - isn't this image adorable?!!   I LOVE making baby cards - they are so much fun to make :-)

The image was stamped onto Watercolour paper and watercoloured with JoSonja Acrylic paints.  I lightly chalked around the image with blue Kaiser chalk, then added AI pink transparent glitter to the bear's hat and muzzle, plus the edge of the pink blanket, then added AI lemon transparent glitter to the edges of the star.  The tiny hearts (the leftover punchies from my Arrows border punch) on the sentiment have also been glittered and I ran my Tim Holtz Spun Sugar (pink) ink around the edge of the sentiment, then attached it to the panel with a yellow button brad.  The image is up on 1mm mounts (dimensionals).

This is the first time I ever done REAL stitching on the card, but I chickened out using my sewing machine - I thought the needle might get gummed up from the adhesive on the doublesided tape plus the panel is quite thick and thought I might ruin the card - so I simply pierced the holes with a paper piercer, then sat in front of the TV that evening and hand-stitched it while I watched my favorite shows.  I LOVE how it looks and will definitely do it again.

The paper flowers are from Enthaily Wholesale.  Aren't they pretty?!   I recently found this really great Australian supplier via their EBay listing and bought a little stash of flowers.  Enthaily Wholesale are an on-line 'his & hers' retailer, ie: they sell craft for the girls and car hoses for the boys all on the same website and are based in Queensland.  They have a big range of flowers: roses & rose buds, dahlias, lilies, forget-me-nots, daisies, orchids, mini blossoms, floral stamens, holly, all different types of leaves, some very cute buttons & lots of other stuff.  I have no connection to them - was just very happy with their service and prices plus they carefully wrapped my flowers so they wouldn't get squashed in the post and I like that you can buy a small quantity or in bulk.

I glued the flowers down with a fabulous new glue called "Crafter's Pick 601104 Incredibly Tacky Glue" that I bought from Gosford Hobbies in NSW.  Bev Rochester from her All the Things I Love Blog recommended it for attaching embellies so I sourced an Australian supplier.  The glue is really, really great - my flowers are really stuck down and haven't moved an inch even though they've been poked, prodded and 'felt' by my 7 yo DD much to my consternation!!

 

Thanks for stopping by - back in a few days with a new creation.

Penny Black: In a nutshell - it's a baby card

Hello there :-)  

One of my neighbours just had a baby girl so this is the card I made for her and her DH to welcome the new arrival.   It gave me the perfect excuse to use my new Cuttlebug Roses embossing folder - I REALLY love this folder - it's so pretty and feminine.

The card uses a similar layout to this GORGEOUS card by Sue Nelson (aka Susie B on Splitcoaststampers).  Sue is one amazing cardmaker who has taught me so much about cardmaking.

I also made it for the Splitcoaststampers: Ways to Use it Challenge WT119 of Scallops, and tried to get as many scallops on the card as I could.  Here is the link for the deets.   Count all the different scallops on my card - even my ribbon AND the button has scallops (do the Hedgie's toes count as scallops?!)  It was fun to challenge myself to get as many different scalloped elements on the card as I could.

This hedgehog stamp was one of the first Penny Black 'Margaret Sherry' stamps I ever bought - quite some years ago - but it is still adorable and doesn't seem to date.  That's what I like about PB stamps - they seem timeless and I feel like I really get the value out of them.  

The image was stamped with Memento ink and coloured with Gamsol and Prismacolor pencils.  I lightly added pink, blue and lemon I-Kan-dee pearlescent chalk around the image.  The sentiment on the tag was stamped with Stazon ink and the tag was diecut with my Cuttlebug and one of the dies from the Cuttlebug Tiny Tags die set - although I did cut the end off to make it smaller to fit the sentiment better.  I chalked around the tag and added some tiny lemon hearts which are the leftover punchies from my EK Success Arrows Border punch (they look like tiny hearts to me).  I think I use this border punch more for the leftover punchies than actually adding a border LOL!  I added some sparkle with Kindyglitz to the flower petals, the hedgie's cheeks and the hearts on the tag.

The ribbon was done in 2 separate elements and the bow itself was made with my Bow Easy and attached with a glue dot. 

Thanks for stopping by my little Blog!
