New Baby Girl Card

This card is based on a 6x6 card blank. I have used Kanban papers for the background along with some coordinating pink pearl and yellow card. The central image is a Hobby House topper from the Wee Stamps by Sylvia Zet collection called 'It's a Girl'. I have distressed the edges with Scattered Straw Distress Ink to bring in more of the yellow colour. The flowers are also from Hobby House, the ribbon and gems from my stash. Behind the main image is a rectangular panel, again backed with coordinating papers, and stitched all around using a sewing machine. The border die cut is from Tattered Lace and the Flourish is a Spellbinders D-Lites die. I had to make a box for this one as it would not fit in an envelope!

A 'Cracking' Vintage!

This card was made using stamps from Rubbernecker Stamps (Creative Expressions). I have made my own background paper using a wine label stamp and some Tim Holtz Vintage Photo ink (also used around the edges). The black panel has been clear embossed with the same image. The foremost topper has been stamped with a wine bottle stamp and triple embossed with UTEE. I then placed into the freezer for a short time to allow it to cool down, before bending it to get the 'cracked' vintage look. The sentiment stamp is from the same range by Creative Expressions. The flowers are from Kanban and the raffia has been added to create a 'posh' wine bottle feel!
