Birthday card and challenges!


Evening All!!

What a busy day we have had today! Got some new shoes for the boy he was so giddy when he wore them for the first time he was bouncy around and running around everywhere lol which trying to keep him close to you while shopping at the frenchgate centre at donny was entertaining to say the least! and then shopping for crafty goodies at the range too and to top the day off food shopping at asda but my hubby did make a lovely tea for us so it has been quite a lovely day!

My dearest hubby has asked me to make him a card for his work matey Sarah so here it is and I've tried tying it in with the following challenges to Anyone for Anya - Hearts 4 Hearts sake, Creative Inspirations Challenge 26 and A Gem of A Challenge - Open to All!! Also The Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge 68 too(my heart is on i on my lettering lol)! I've treated myself to a docrafts goody bag jan-feb which is absolutely fab so many goodies for £14.99!! and some water colour pencils so here is the result LOL

I've used:

Papermania capsule collection Sunshine papers, ribbon, flowers and polka buttons (which i adore!)
Textured Cardstock
Anya Stamp
Sizzix Baby says yeah Alphabet

Hope your all ok in blogland

New baby card for my Sister in law and her partner


I know I'm a bit early as my sister in law isn't due her 1st baby till April but like I've said my new years resolution is to get my cards done in plenty of time LOL Also the card coincides with the Cute n' girly - 'something new' challenge and funky hand's 'spots and stripes' challenge, I'm being a bit eager that they are having a girl cause we don't we know what they are having but i thought if i do a girl and a boy card then i keep either one for another time as my other sister in law is also expecting another baby in May so they all have been busy!

I've used:

Funky daze backing papers
Sizzix 'baby says yeah' alphabet
Sizzix Hello kitty die ( I'd thought I'd use the bunny one as it Easter in April)

HOTP ribbon
Papermania flower, brad and buttons
Dovecraft jewels

Sorry for not posting in a while again all i seem to be doing at the minute is going to work and end up working till 8pm and not wanting to do anything when i get home lol but i should be ok now my hours are back to normal next week hurrah!!

Also not forgetting the Polka doodles challenge - Song Title which i'm using 'whats new pussy cat' by Tom Jones as it's for a new baby and the pussy cat is the ever so sweet hello kitty LOL
