New puppy and baby card

I have been a bit absent lately...been so busy and haven't had much time to blog but here goes...

On Monday we added a new addition to the family...my sister got a new puppy. He is a Botson Terrier and she has named him Auggie (short for Augustine, yep, like the saint). 

He is the most adorable little thing EVER!!!! He even snores! He weighed 1.9lbs when we picked him up and he was so tiny. He was the biggest one when his litter was born but somehow became the littlest puppy! Oh but he is so cute.

Here is a card I completed a little while ago. I am in need of baby cards...it seems everyone I know is getting pregnant so always good to have a few extra on hand.


The image is by Mo Manning "Baby Fairy Flora". What a chubby baby...LOL.

 I used some extra paper I had in my stash.

The copics I used were:

Skin: E000, E00, E11, E21, E93,
Hair:E13, E15, E17
Bees: Y17
Hair Ties: YG23, Y06
Dress: RV21, RV23, RV25, BG24

Ground: G20, G21, YG63

Here is a more detailed view of the background.

NSD Kraftin Kimmie Challenge #5 - Boys will be Boys

Hi All!!

Back with another of Kimmie's National Scrapbooking Day Krop challenges. This time it is Jenny's challenge Boys Will Be BOYS! Her challenge was to make any card as long as it had some boyish charm.

I know I have said this before but I find boy/male cards the hardest to do...girls...sure easy peasy, some bling, flowers and the color pink and you're good...boys....whole other story!

So as per Jenny's suggestion I am getting down and dirty with a boy card. 

So for this card - which turned out AMAZING!!! Don't you think??

I used Kraftin Kimmie's Down on the Farm stamp set. This set comes with three adorable little kids and several sentiments to match. SO CUTE!

Isn't this little guy the cutest!

Supplies Used:
Paper: Best Creation Inc. (Farm Life) 
Misc. Supplies: Pebbles (Pearl Candy Dots), Burlap, CTMH (badge buttons), spellbinders 
Ink: Momento (rich cocoa)

Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, R11 Hat: E23, E25, E29

I also made this card an easel card. Here is the side shot when folded up.










Here is the inside of the card. I used some scraps left over from creating the front to make the little flags. I also stamped the image again in brown to add a little fun to this card.

Enjoy!

So this is post No.2 today on this lovely beautiful day in Ontario.

This card I created is for Kraftin Kimmie's second National Scrapbooking Day challenge. This challenge was hosted by Sheri, she wanted us to celebrate something! This was hard for me as I am at a crop and didn't bring any celebration stuff....goes to show you I clearly didn't read the challenge. I actually had some baby stamps which worked perfect!

I created this card for my friend's daughter as she just had her first baby a short time ago. Congrats Jessica and Adam! May you get some sleep soon.

Misc.: cardstock, jewels, ribbon, tulle
Paper: Chantilly (CTMH)
