By the Cute and Girly Challenge Entry.

This is my entry for this month's By the Cute and Girly challenge. The brief is "Cute as a Button" I used Hawaiian Shores CS for the card base, layered it with black CS and stamped my own patterned paper using PTI's Rosie Posie stamp set. The flowers are die cut from Soft Stone CS and stamped with Hawaiian Shores and Spring Rain ink. The set is called Beautiful Blooms II. I stamped PTI's Library Card stamp on a Project Life journalling tag and added a thank you sentiment from Botanical Silhouettes. The buttons are PTI's Blueberry Sky, ribbon is PTI's Hawaiian Shores and the bling is from Kaisercraft.

Thanks for looking :)

 

 

More Thank You Cards.

Another card using scraps! I'm beginning to see a pattern here :) I'm keeping them as simple as possible, as I have quite a few to make.

This card uses only PTI die cuts. I used Trendy Treetops, Picket Fence and the cloud die.

Thanks for looking :)

 

More Cards Using Scraps

Still trawling my way through the basket of scraps. I'm trying to build up a few thank you cards, so I'll have them handy for after the baby is born. These ones are made using a Basic Grey paper pack. I'm not 100% sure of the name of it, but I really love the colours. The sentiment is from PTI's Simple Sentiment stamp set. Thanks for looking :)

 

Birthday Card Using Alphas

I have far too many alphabet stickers, so I'm trying to slowly work my way through them. The patterned paper is the yellow flourish paper from Echo Park Upscale. I really love this paper pack! The happy birthday sentiment is stamped on with PTI Summer Sunrise ink. I added a bit of Kaisercraft bling to finish it off. Thanks for looking :)

 

PTI Baby Card and Birthday Card

Sorry the light isn't so great in these photos. We've been having so many dark and dull days here in Ireland. I've been so lax in posting but my second baby is due in less than two weeks and I just haven't had the time!

I used PTI Night Night Moon for the baby card and added a tag at the bottom.

For the second card, I used Fly Away, Trendy Tree Tops dies and cloud dies. Alphas are from American Crafts. Thanks for looking :)

 

New Waltzing Mouse Stamps.

I got my first ever Waltzing Mouse stamps in the post and I'm so impressed! The quality is so good and they stamp like a dream. I bought the French Country and Chicken Wire background sets. They compliment each other perfectly.

On this first card, I used the bigger chicken wire stamp, along with the rooster from French Country. The sentiment is from PTI's Beautiful Butterflies.

I really love the border stamp from French Country, as it makes it so easy to stamp a quick card. It's so intricate and pretty. I made a set of these for my French aunt.

I will definitely be ordering from Waltzing Mouse again, as the service was fantastic. I love the fact they're in Northern Ireland and I received my stamps in just a few days. 

Rosie Posie Cards

Just adding two cards I made for my mum's birthday using Rosie Posie. I love how versatile the images are, it's definitely a  favourite for me.
