It's A Girl!!!!

 Good afternoon! The snow finally is shrinking back, hopefully spring is round the corner although with the weather here we probably aren't out of the woods yet!

It's the first new release day over at Stamper's Delights and we are some super cute images for you. Do you need a new baby or shower card? Then this image is perfect - Meet Chibi It's a Girl:


Isn't she sweet! She comes with the sentiments shown with the image and being a digital stamp is easy to resize. 
I decided to print off a few of the images so I could decoupage them:


I colored the whole of the first image, the second one I colored the box lid and tag (which had one of the sentiments printed on it)  and the last image I just colored the box lid ribbon.
I fussy cut all of the colored parts and stacked them on top of each other in the corresponding areas
I mated a A7 card base with some pink card and a peach colored polkadot paper. Then die cut a heart bunting from the same card I used for my mat. The sentiment was die cut again with a mat. I added my image to the card and tucked in the sentiment. The bunting was added across one corner and the waste from this, the hearts were 'scattered' down to my sentiment.

If you love this image head on over to the Stamper's Delights Store to see all of this week’s New Releases.

New Beginnings

 Good evening! Hope everyone is keeping safe and well. Winter is upon us. We have had temps below freezing all week and the snow is hanging around.

My post today is to show a project made for the House Mouse challenge, their optional theme this time is New Beginnings and what is more new than a new baby:


This card is made in layers I used an A7 card base and an A2 one. I cut 3/4 in from the front of the A7 card and matted the front and inside with teal card stock and design paper, a length of ribbon was glued to the center of the card under the inside layers. I stamped the super cute image onto stamping card and colored it with Copic markers. The edges were then inked with distress oxide to coordinate with A7 card. I then took the A2 card base and turned it around so it opened from the left. I matted the inside with the same cardstock and design paper. I then glued a length of ribbon to the back of this and then the card base was glued inside the A7 base:


I wrapped the ribbon around the front of the A2 card and glued my stamp card in place. This gave me a card that opens in multiple layers from opposite sides.
Finally I added a matted sentiment to the inside.


The ribbon then ties at one side to keep it all together.

As I said previously I am entering this card into the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge
