Cute Card Thursday - Greens

Our theme at Cute Card Thursday this week is 'Greens'. 

As always, we welcome your own interpretation. 

I'm currently in love with the picture book dies from Simon Says Stamp and this zebra wafer die is one of the cutest!

I die cut the zebra from both black and white cardstock and pieced them together on the patterned paper from Doodlebug's at the zoo collection.

I used Lawn Fawn's outside in stitched scalloped circle stackables die to cut the window from the white cardstock panel. I added foam tape behind this panel to pop it up on top of the zebra panel.

I stamped the sentiments using SSS Stamptember 2018 Monster Hugs stamp set and SSS Punny Animals stamp set. This was then added to the white panel and then adhered to a standard A2 white card base.

We are sponsored this week by My Creative Scoop, a great prize as always! Hope you can join us! See you there!

Thanks for looking!

Happy crafting x

I am also entering this card into the current Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes challenge #59.

I cut him out using the coordinating die set.

For the background, I used the white A2 blank card base. I die cut a white panel from cardstock within the kit, using the second largest Whimsy Stamps Hand Stitched Nested Rectangle. I then mounted this onto some grey cardstovk from my stash, leaving a thin border around the outside.
I used the Whimsy Stamps Wavy Edgers die set to cut the green paper from the kit. I die cut a square from the striped pattern paper in the kit and adhered them both to the white panel. I added some grey and white bakers twine to the panel and tied it in a bow. This panel was then adhered to the white card base.
I stamped the sentiment using VersaFine CLAIR Nocturne (black) ink and adhered the cat on to finish.

Cute Card Thursday - Wings

*This album is for SOLD - email me for details - kerys(dot)sharrock(at)me(dot)com. 
** Albums of same design can be made to order - all themes considered. Email me for enquiries.

Our theme at Cute Card Thursday this week is 'Wings'. 
As always, we welcome your own interpretation. 

Another baby's first year mini album. I love this design for a mini album and used ideas from Corenescreations on YouTube.

This album measures 8.5" x 8.5" with a 3.5" spine. The cover is made from medium weight chipboard. 

I used Echo Park's 'Bundle of Joy' and 'Sweet Baby Girl' collection packs along with ribbon, charms and sequins from my stash.

Each double page is new month and has a 4.25" x 6.25" photo mat (the embellishments are left open so that a photo can be slid behind) and a pocket with journalling cards and plenty of room to add more photos. There is also a milestone card for each month allowing the Mum a quick and easy way of keeping track of all the memories. There are also pull out mats for each month to add even more photos!

The first month has a waterfall for lots of those first born photos. There is also a note card with all of the details on the birth to be filled in.

For the final page I add a double pocket with photo mats to add the baby's first Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter and Halloween. These fit a 4" x 6" photograph.

There is SO much room in this album to add photographs and journalling to cherish all of those precious memories of your special addition to the family.

We are sponsored this week by All Dressed Up Stamps, a great prize as always! 

Hope you can join us!

Thanks for looking.

Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes

Our theme at Cute Card Thursday this week is 'Anything Goes'. 

As always, we welcome your own interpretation. 

There is a collaboration between ThermOWeb & Whimsy Stamps this week and I used products from both companies for this card. Check out the whimsy blog for details on how to win some goodies!

I used the Penguin Birthday stamp from Whimsy stamps and colored it in with my prismacolor pencils. I then fussy cut it out. I adhered this onto a white panel die cut using Whimsy Stamps Notched Rectangles die set.

For the background I used GinaK Polka Party Foil-mates and Rose Gold deco foil. This was super easy and fun to do. I also used the foil to make the 'washi' strip. I adhered some double sided tape to a piece of scrap card and then adhered the foil on top. The foil stuck only where the tape was and so I cut around this giving the washi tape effect.

I adhered the polka dot panel and wash border directly onto a standard A2 white card base. I then popped up the white image panel onto some fun foam for added dimension.
