Baby - Boy




Baby - Boy

Materials Used: 

White 110# cardstock from Staples
Stampin' Up!: Pool Party Cardstock
                       Scallop Trim Border & Corner Punches
                       Pinking Hearts Border Punch
                       Buggies & Booties Stamp Set
                       1" Ribbon
Tim Holtz "Weathered Wood" Distress Ink - Ranger
Baby Die from Marianne Dies
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder -"Rebecca"
Clearly Better Black Ink Pad - TPC Studio

For the inside of the card, I inked the stamp with Weathered Wood Distress ink, stamped it once on a piece of scrap paper, then stamped it on the card so that it would be lighter.  I like the way the Distress inks make clean, good impression on the subsequent stampings.  

After stamping the bassinett, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin' Up! Buggies & Booties set with black ink.

Wedding Card

Wedding Card





This card is for a wedding that I am going to attend this weekend. The top picture is of the outside of the card and the bottom picture is of the inside.
My photography skills are not the greatest when it comes to photographing cards.  Please excuse. 
This card was made with Staples 110 # white cardstock.  The front was embossed with the Cuttlebug "Texture" folder.  The watercolor prints were from Carol Wilson Fine Arts, Inc. - Cheryl Smith copyright.  I cut out the inside of the frame to get just the flowers.  I love the soft colors that was used in this watercolor.  The matting is Stampin' Up! Concord Crush cardstock.  The small pearls are also from Stampin' Up!  The butterfly is the Vivienne Butterfly from a Memory Box Die which I purchased from Joan's Garden. The printing is done with my computer using the Edwardian Script font.
