Just a couple of quickies.......

Just a couple of baby cards that I made yesterday to post today. I made one that is vintage and one that is modern.


First the vintage. The Buggies and Booties stamp set is a retired stamp set from Stampin' Up. This was one of my first stamp sets that I ever ordered from them. It's still one of my favorites. I used the polka dot deep impressions folder, kraft (now crumble cake) paper and pink pirouette paper and chocolate chip craft ink from Stampin' Up. The rose is from Prima. The ribbon is one of my favorite things, it's hand-dyed and antiqued from Marilyn Healey of Memrie Mare on Etsy.com. This is a wonderful site where people sell all sorts of handmade items. The crocheted cotton lace is a Dollarama special (where I buy ALL my lace)

This one is a little modern, I made it for my lovely neighbour, Kendra, for a baby shower she is going to this weekend.

This was made using the Bundled in Love stamp set, polka dot deep impressions folder, Sweet Pea DP and Pixie Pink and Whisper White papers, Pretty in Pink ribbon from Stampin' Up. The pearls for the duck were a dollar store find, button from Papertrey Ink. The white ribbon roses I found in Fabricland. You can also buy these by the metre (yard) at most scrapbooking stores. Webster's Pages also has packages of ribbon roses in beautiful colors. I haven't had much opportunity yet to use them, but I will plan on using them more on upcoming projects.

My dear hubby is on his way back from Kelowna, B.C. (McNugget Open, golf tournament for MacDonald's Western Canada) so I feel compelled to clean the house up today and make a nice supper. This is mainly so that it looks like I have done something other than blog the past four days!!! Ahhhhh the tricks of the trade.

Happy Creating! See you later.
