Hot Mama to be!

Hello, Happy Mother's Day to all the mummies out there. Yesterday my hubby gave me a nice bunch of flowers and my kids are going to cook me a pancake this morning he he I'm going to looove that  :)  

Thought I would post this card now, before I go to sleep, as not sure if I would be able to do it during the day and definitely didn't want to miss another day without making a post! Was again so busy on Saturday, not making cards though this time, but doing housework...... We had some awful windy weather this week, raining reddish sand, so everywhere was a real big mess... just had to do a big clean up!

Anyways, thought this card would be just perfect for today. It was one of the cards I was busy making this week. The stamp is one of the newest from Some Odd Girl and I just had to get it... so cute.


I coloured her with my promarkers, paper pieced her top, and I did the sentiment on the computer myself. To do the embossing I used my cuttlebug folder and not to leave part of the card without embossing, since the folder isn't square, I rerun the card from the other side and then hid the part where the swirls do not match, with the ribbon! Hope you like it.

Love is in the Air

Hi, I got a quick card today, and a quick post as well, because I am so busy this week... I even didn't post anything yesterday !!  and haven't even been able to do all my visits, so my apologies.. but I got me some ordered cards to do for this week.. . he he not very often .. so really excited about it :-) 

This is one of them, this friend wanted to give a card to her future husband as they get married, and she wanted the colours I used on my card. She also didn't want anything bulky on the card so that she would be able to put it in the photo album ... This is what I came up with.. a quickie one, but she loved it.


For my card I used my LOTV stamp, which I coloured with my promarkers, paper from a magazine freebie, and my MS punch for the flower and leaves.
 Some ribbon, hearts and a charm to finish it off.

- Your Next Stamp 41 - SO CHARMING

A Shaker Card

Hello, good morning, I have a Wedding Card today and it's my DT Card for today's Stamp Fairy Challenge. Yes, as from this week I am on the Monday Team and so I'll be having some fun with the Challenges now. ... .. and wow did I start with a big challenge.. we had to do a SHAKER CARD today .. and it's the first time I am trying one of these cards!! .. .but so easy to do.. and then the shaking part is so fun ha ha  :) .. you really have to have a go with these.

If you've never tried one, Netty has made a fab tutorial for us, it's here if you'd like to have a go.


For my card I decided to use Lenny & Linda Wedding again.. but this time decided to colour them lighter for a change. For the background I used my Papermania swirly and flower stamp and I did the sentiment myself. 

Here is a close up of the shaking part ... I filled it up with lots of punched little papers which I was collecting from all the punching I do ha ha..

Really hope you will come and join us for our Shaker Card challenge... go have a look at what my other teamies did for lots more inspiration... and remember to use a Stamp Fairy stamp.
