Friday Mashup Sketch Challenge and C'mon 200!


I used the fabulous Friday Mashup Sketch!  I looked at the sketch and immediately thought "Oh BABY!"  and so created a fun baby card!  I really enjoy the Friday Mashup challenge blog, if you haven't already, be sure to check them out!! 


Here is my creation!!  I used the Vintage Label Punch to create a little wagon for my giraffe from the stamp set "Animal Stories".  I am really happy with how this turned out!  But this is not my idea...nope...I am definitely not clever enough! LOL!  I got the idea from a VERY talented stamper Lisa Young of Add Ink and Stamp.  Her samples are fabulous...I thought it was such a fun idea!  Now I need to create one in Pink...or maybe I will think of something a little less conventional for colours!

By the way...did you notice the title of my post...it has something to do with my Followers...my wonderful, fabulous and kind hearted Followers...I am SO close...just one more...can someone help me break 200?  Pretty please! LOL!!

I'm Back!

After report card writing and a horrible cold/sinus thingy...I am happy to be back to stamping. It has been awful not being able to stamp and so, with gusto, I set about stamping...and came up with a few different cards with a similar layout! This first set I used the Animals Stories set that is FREE with a qualifying purchase. Of course Sale-A-Bration ends tomorrow so I was happy to get this stamp set for free while I could! I made a couple of baby cards, which are always handy to have around!

This next card I used the Charming Set which was in the Holiday Mini. It is still available for purchase and so I bought it, because I love vintage looking stamps. It is difficult to see in the photo but the Sage Shadow paper is embossed with my Texture Plates using the Big Shot. I am really pleased with how this card turned out!
This Butterfly card was one of the cards I was going to teach at my "Kissing and Thumping" Class. I had to cancel this class because of my cold, I didn't want to get anyone else sick! I will be offering the class again mid-April.I hope tomorrow to be able to play the Colour Throwdown and some other fun challenges out there!

Thanks for stopping by!
