Baby Boy Card

This card started out as my entry for a challenge on the Trimcraft website to create your own stamp.

The background paper is stamped using a die cut baby bottle shape (cut from my Slice machine). The hearts around the image has been stamped using a metal heart embellishment that I put a foam pad on the back off so had something to hold when stamping.

Although the stamping wasn't as successful as I hoped the card turned out better than I expected in the end.

I'm back!!

It's been a while since I've updated my blog, but I've still been busy crafting though. I've been busy making cards for the challenges on the Trimcraft website. I also started on my Christmas cards this weekend, well I've make 7 now!! But it's a start.

In our house we're also busy preparing for our oldest boy starting school in a week's time. He's had a month off nursery, so he had a break before school. It's meant for the last month we've had a 4 year old to entertain. We've done lots of things and I really enjoyed have some time off with him. Still can't believe he starts school in a week, he's so excited though!!

My Sons Birthday Card

I've been neglating my blog and challenges for the last month, but I have still been making cards, but life has been hectic the last month. The most exciting thing was that it was my little boys 4th birthday this week, I thought I'd share the card I made for him which is my favourite card I've made recently because he loved it so much. I can't resit also a showing you a photo of him on his big day with his birthday cake.

Here's a card using a stamped image I got in a stamp image swap from another Trimmie. I then coloured it in using Promarkers and put some glitter on her wings.

It's another Tilda card, this time using the cute bumblebee image. I was sat colouring her in when my 3 year old son insisted that she should be orange, so hence I have made a very orange card. It's his favouriate colour!!
