Using Scraps on Baby Cards for Some Card Challenges

Happy Tuesday!! I am just popping in at the last minute to post some baby cards I created. I was inspired by this weeks badge from the Inspired By #166 challenge for the colors of my cards and the theme.

My first card is a top folding card. I used Lawn Fawn "Little Bundle" stamps and matching dies for the little baby clothes.

The Inspired By photo below is my inspiration:

I die cut my patchwork squares from paper scraps using the MFT Pierced Squares (retired). I knew I had to use the color scheme from the photo because it used ORANGE!!!


My die cut sentiment is from PTI-Wonderful Words Baby.

I am going to enter this into the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Two or More Pattern Papers as well.

My second card is similar to my first. However, I loosely based it on the Inspired By Sketch


Here is the Inspired By sketch:

As you can see, my patchwork is not laid out like the sketch and I did not use a circle under my sentiment. Instead I made an imaginary circle sentiment block by surrounding the die cut with the little baby items. Can you see it?

I have not made baby cards in AGES and these were SO FUN to create. It was a fabulous way to use up some of my paper scraps too!!!

In other news, I am STILL moving my craft room. I cannot tell you how much stuff I still have and how much I have gotten rid of!!! I do need to get my new room in order, though, which means cleaning off shelves from my old room to haul the furniture upstairs to put all the organized crap that I have in containers all over my floor!

Part of my cleaning this weekend was getting a huge amount of scrapbook pages in actual albums. It has made miss scrapbooking and I might have to take it up again. 

Well, I want to get this posted. I thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a GREAT night!

Less is More Challenge #378

Happy Friday!! I have been having fun in my craft room the last couple days. I have been using NBUS (Never Before Use Stuff-acronym coined by Darnell) that has been collecting dust.

My first card I kept it really simple. I used Docrafts *"Moroccan Tiles" dies to cut out scrap pieces.


My inspiration was from the Less is More Challenge #378, Sketch 24. It was to use the sketch below as my inspiration.



I then used the smallest square die in the *Umbrella Crafts Nested Squares die set to die cut four squares to go under the decorative die cuts.


I layered the squares over the kraft A2 card front and then adhered a My Favorite Things banner sentiment in the middle.


I really like how this came out and cannot wait to use the other dies in the *"Moroccan Tiles" die set.

My second card is a baby card that I made with Lawn Fawn's *"Little Bundle" stamp and die set for my cousin. He and his wife had a beautiful little girl.


I created the background by shading *"Tumbled Glass" Distress Ink and using Copic markers for grass.


The little clothes were die cut from scraps of patterned paper and then I used Nuvo Crystal drops for the buttons.


Well that is all for me tonight. I hope you all have a fabulous night!! Thanks for stopping by!!

Vacation and some Lawn Fawn "Little Bundle" Cards

Happy Friday everyone!! It is my last day of vacation before the weekend. Charlotte and I spent it home as Chris was away on business.

I was a bit sad that we were not able to go away somewhere this year but it was a beautiful week weather wise and Char and I got to hang out together. I even spent one day in my pjs just watching television. Why? Because I COULD!! Here are a few random photos from the week.


We went shopping and Target was one of our stops. I made Charlotte pose with the Target dog!!


The weather has been nice and my tulips have opened up. I LOVE spring!!


Charlotte had a costume fitting on Wednesday. The studio owner let the parents take photos of the girls all dressed up. She would kill me if she knew I revealed the costumes before the recital!!


One of our impulse buys at Target was this bow tie for Zack. Doesn't he look adorable?


I never take selfies but had to send a photo to my husband of my hair. I lightened it yesterday. One thing about dying your grays-you can go any color you want!! (Within reason!!)

I have been kind of quiet here on my blog as of late not because I have not been busy in my craft room but because I have been creating up a storm for a bunch of DT assignments. Next week there will be plenty of posts!!

However, I did want to post my cards that I created with Lawn Fawn's "Little Bundle" stamp and die set. I kind of became obsessed with using it.


My first card I used the stamps and dies to make a simple boy card.


One thing about this set is that I was able to use a TON of scraps.



I think my favorite thing about this card is the overalls!! I used Nuvo Gloss White Crystal Drops for the buttons and now I am obsessed with the stuff!!

For my second boy card, I used the new My Favorite Things "Blueprints 27" and the Lawn Fawn set to create the card.


Again, I utilized pattern paper scraps with the stamps for the clothes and the blanket.



I then made some baby girl cards. I have to give both sexes equal opportunity!!


LOVE the patterned paper I used for the background!! I am so bummed that Basic Grey is closing its doors!!


I did a little fussy cutting for the bow on the jumper.



For baby girl card #2, I stamped a background in pink with the images from "Little Bundle."


The tag was created using CHRISTMAS paper!! I have been trying to utilize my holiday paper for more then just what it was made for.



I am adding a third baby girl card that was the first card I created using the "Little Bundle" set but never posted.


I adore the gray paper I used for the background but alas, have no idea what company it is from. If I did, I would buy more. It is perfection!!



Again I used Nuvo Crystal Drops in "Red Berry" to create the buttons, as well as the trim on the sleeper. 

Well, that is all for me today. Thank you for stopping by!! I hope you have a FABULOUS weekend!!

CAS(E) this Sketch #165

Happy Easter!! I hope you all had a FABULOUS day. I spent time with some of my extended family, whom I have not seen in a few months.

Yesterday was Chris' birthday. We left him alone to do whatever he wanted to do for the day. He spent it playing video games and relaxing. Love this man!!

We did go out to a local barbecue place that he wanted to go to for dinner. It is cafeteria style and oh so delicious.


This was my meal. I took half home, which will be my lunch at work tomorrow.

Today I am sharing a card I created for CAS(E) this Sketch #165.


I chose to flip the sketch a bit for my design and I am hoping they accent it!!



Here is what the original was:


I probably should have put the circle with the baby sleeper on the right side now that I think of it. I was looking at it the wrong way and just moving the whole border down rather then just flipping it 180 degrees.

Anyway, I needed a baby card to go with a gift I bought for a co-worker so making this is not wasted.


The card base is PaperTrey Ink's Aqua Mist and I layered a piece of Amy Tangerine patterned paper from the "Rise and Shine" collection. I used a My Favorite Things "Pierced Rectangle" to die cut it. I then layered a die cut scrap that I had stamped with a sentiment from Lawn Fawn's "Little Bundle" set.


Using foam adhesive, I layered a white card stock circle over the border strip. I then adhered the little sleeper that I had stamped and die cut from patterned paper, (also from "Little Bundle") as well as used some Studio Nuvo Crystal Drops to make the little white buttons.


My last step was to adhere some sequins around the circle.

I had a TON of fun creating this card and die cut and stamped a TON from this new Lawn Fawn set. I plan to make a bunch of baby cards to have on hand from this set.

Thank you for stopping by!! Have a great week!!
