Baby Boy


Birthday card for a another little one recently born and they have all been boys, three years ago  it was all girls. Nature does seem to even things out. I tend to like to use  pin wheels  as an accent for boys instead of the flowers I would use for a girl.  Using  Stampin' Ups' pin wheel die makes it relatively easy.

Image ; Mo Manning's 'Spit Happens' digital stamp  
Stampin' Up: Sentiment
Pin-wheel: Stampin' Up's  Die Cut
Spellbinder: inverted square die cut
Colouring; Copics 
Baby Boy: Alphabet die cuts by Memory Box

Bouncy Baby Boy

                            


Hi everyone and my crafting friends, I am posting for the first time in about a year and half:  Will see how it goes. My family and my  friend's children are having babies after about a 3 year 'dry spell'. I think this is fairly normal as the first ones are out of the diaper  and can basically feed themselves (when it is presented to them).I say yay for I only  have to love them and leave the rearing to the mothers!  Oh how I adore little ones. This card is for the daughter of my yoga  teacher (and friend). who had a bouncy baby boy about a month ago.  

Image ; Mo Manning's 'Baby and Bunny' digital stamp  
Sentiment: Doodle Pantry  'Baby Shoes' digital stamp set and Spellbinders die cut Inverted Circles
Pin-wheel: Stampin' Up's  Die Cut
Colouring; Copics
Plain Paper: Stampin'  Up Brilliant Blue  and Whisper White
Designer paper: Doodle Pantry (digital)

My DT Card for Lexi's Creations    Challenge #119 'Black, White plus one Colour'. The challenge will run July 7th, 2014 - July 19th , 2014. My splash of colour is beige as the colour must not overwhelm the black and white. 
I debated whether to make the hair dark and add a small heart in pink in the bottom right corner (for my splash) but the hair of the  child this card is destined  for will probably not be dark so made is a light beige colour.

Guest Designer Spot- Crafting by Designs -Happy Birthday

I am a Guest Designer this week of June 11th, 2014  at 'Crafting by Designs'; theme 'Happy Birthday'!   I am honoured to participate. Please check out their challenge here! 

I love Mo Manning digital stamps and this one is called 'thanks'. I thought it would be great for a pre toddler birthday card. 
I used a background stamp from Impression Obsession called Kaleidascope which I stamped with VersaMark and heat embossed. The image  is coloured with Prismacolor Markers and I used  Copics for the skin tone (E13,E00,E000). The die cuts are:Marianne Designs butterfly; Memory Box 'Fabulous Phlox ( top 3 layers of the flower); La-la-land Hearts Banner;Spellbinders 'Foliage'. I also used several Stampin Up punches: 'Modern Label' punched out twice and used for the sentiment, 'Photo Corners',half hidden under the image matting and one of their flower punches (not sure of its name) for the bottom layer of the flower. I added some self stick 'bling Stone' and the flowers and butterfly had stickles added to them for some glitz! I also sprayed the flower with some perfect pearls mist.
hope you like:O!

Oh Baby

Sketch09

I combined three images ( onesie,diaper pin & bottle) from the Doodle Pantry digital stamp set called 'Oh Baby'. They were merged using  Microsoft Word. This stamps set comes with coloured and non coloured images, digital paper and sentiments.  I printed the diaper pin and baby bottle out twice, cut them out and using foam tape placed the bottle and the head of the pin over the originals for a dimensional effect. 
Card recipe:
  • Stamps: Doodle Pantry 'Oh Baby'; Impression-Obsession background stamp 'Stitches'
  • Prismacolor markers (the diaper pin head and the baby bottle were pre-coloured images and used to make the items dimensional)
  • Button 
  • Stickers and a rhinestone
  • Ribbon
  • Die Cuts:  Spellbinders Shapeabilities 'Symbology'; Procraft baby& accessories die cut  
  • Embossing:  heat embossed background layer   and dry embossed the panel behind the image frame with Stampin' Up's Fancy Fan folder



Please check out the Doodle Pantry Challenge #44 which runs through to March  24th, and  if you use a Doodle Pantry image , you get a  free set for entering. You can still enter with a non Doodle Pantry image,you will just not receive the free set, but you are still in the draw to win the major prize!
