To finish off this series I have done a few welcome baby cards. The stamp set is Stampin Up zoo Babies, and the ink, and cardstock are also from stampin up. The embossing folder on the boys cards is from stampin Up – hexagons, and I am not too sure of the girl card embossing folder,but possibly couture creations!.tomorrow we will start a new series, today I visited paper flourish and picked up two new kaisercraft collections – hello sunshine and telegraph road, but probably won’t get a chance to create with them this week,as I am a bit busy organising myself for my trip to Perth at the weekend. til tomorrow….

Zoo Babies number 2
Stampin Up zoo babies stamp set, certainly celery cardstock, and choc chip and so saffron ink pads. The embossing folder is by cuttlebug, and the scalloped rectangles are spellbinders. Another very very hot day today, so I am not getting very far with my order! It appears that it is going to be a little cooler tomorrow so hopefully I will get it finished then, but a trip up to paper flourish is also on the agenda to have a look at the new kaisercraft papers, and maybe buy some! Til tomorrow..
Zoo Babies
the next few cards are ones I made with one stamp set from Stampin Up – Zoo Babies.the embossing folder I used here is a cuttlebug folder,and I used spellbinders scalloped rectangles dies, and everything else is from Stampin Up . Inks used were soft sky and midnight muse, as was the cardstock ( along with whisper white). I hand cut a banner and the stamps used on the banner were from the stampin up memorable moments set. Another hot day here but have managed to make a few cards – I have an order to fulfil otherwise I would be sitting under the air conditioner duct! Til tomorrow….

Still with the stamping theme today, and although I know the paper collection I used is kaisercraft the name eludes me for the moment – it is an earlier release.Cardstock and stamps are by Stampin Up – the set is called cheers to you, and I coloured the images with Kaisercraft markers, and added some sparkle with kindyglitz.I have finished work for the day and so my holidays have officially started . Looking forward to a relaxing bread! til tomorrow….
Kazzazz train stamp
keeping with the male themed stamped cards, tonights cards use a stamp I purchased from Kazzazz.I used stampin up cardstock – cherry cobbler, crumbcake and not quite navy, and the little bit of patterned paper is Prima Craftsman. The card on the right makes use of the negative cardstock left over after I had die cut the labels on the left card. ( dies are from stampin up – sizzix decorative labels.) I just had to add a little bakers twine and prima trim to finish these ones! til tomorrow….

Graphic 45 Sweet Sentiments number 2..
Here is the second card I have made using Graphic 45 sweet sentiments.( this is the last for now until we photo the Easter cards I made). The bottom layer of this one is actually My Minds Eye paper but it seemed to match so well and it was an odd piece of paper that I had so I used it!. All my layers were inked with Ranger distress ink – Tea Dye, and I added a charm tied with linen thread to the top left hand corner.I have been busy in the craft room this afternoon making up some orders, but I am heading back in there now to play around with some ideas I have.. til tomorrow….
Graphic 45 Sweet sentiments number 1
I bought a 12 x 12 pad of Graphic 45 Sweet Sentiments paper, and there are lots of images on this paper for valentines day cards and easter cards. This week I have been making some Easter cards , but previously I made a couple of valentines Day cards – this is the first one.Nothing on this card except for the papers – layered and fussy cut. Some fancy photography by Nathan managed to put an image of the inside of the card on the right hand side of the card front.the layer of paper used on the inside is actually My Minds Eye now that I look closely!That crossover of paper companys very rarely happens in my world! I taught a lovely class of ladies this morning, and I am looking forward to a long weekend of crafting. Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Velvet Crush number 4
Sorry I missed yesterdays post, but I had an urgent order, so it was cook tea and straight into the craft room last night! Todays card is still using the kaisercraft velvet crush collection, and I used the 6 ” pad, collectables, and a piece of the 12 x 12 paper fussy cut the label at the back – it had words printed on it that I didn’t really want to use so I layered another label on top, just another way to use the labels and tags in this collection.To finish – rhinestones and a ribbon bow.The cardstock and sentiment stamp is from Stampin Up.
