Gorgeous Baby Girl Album

I'm slowly creating my albums (when I can find time!) and decided to put together a baby girl album. It is absolutely gorgeous.

It was listed on ebay and before I even had the chance to share it on my blog, I ended it early and it was sold to a returning customer.

Anyway, really enjoyed putting this one together and a have already started on the next one.

To be 21 again.......okay, okay, I know I am only 29 but really not looking forward to turning the big 30 next year. I made this card for an old friend who I've known since she was about 9 years old.


Materials used were yummy papers from Kirstys blog, flower is Dream Designs, printed sentiment and buttons and ribbon from stash.

Birthday Bellas

I'm not much of a stamper but when I saw the 'Bella' stamps over on Stamping Bella, I just fell in love with them. I need to build up a stock of cards before I return to work from my maternity leave. Have made two birthday cards this avro.

Materials used were DCWV PP, Bazzill cardstock, Bella Stamp, Heidi Swapp stamp, ribbon from Little Silver Hat.

'Now onto this weeks dare...Everything we buy has packaging, some of it excessive, some of it beautifully designed. Tags, labels, stickers... all sorts of bits and bobs that we can recycle onto cards.I dare you to make a card using a tag, label, sticker or anything else you can find, thats from packaging and would normally end up in the bin. Of course you can ink it, change it, distress it and add anything else you like!If you're feeling brave, I DOUBLE DARE you to make it a card for a man!'

I've got a few of these 'Ollie' designer clothes tags that I kept with the intention of scrapping with them, one day! Plus found some wide brown ribbon from some packaging, not that I can remember what exactly it was from. My eldest son is named Ollie, so made a birthday card for him but may hold onto it for a couple of years as its not really suited to a little boy turning three.

Materials used are Basic Grey Urban Corture PP, Dawn Bibby bookplate, brads and curly clips from stash, printed sentiment plus inked edges of card.

DCM - You're not the (em)boss of me

'Hi there playmates, its Lythan here! Doing these dares is such a joy. We all love seeing what you create so much. The way that you have taken up and run with both the Celestial dare and the Midweek extra this week has just been awesome.As a reward - and as I was so strict last time I set a dare - here is a nice broad theme to get your creative juices flowing. Embossing.Dry embossing with a light box or with a die cutting machine.Using embossing powders or triple embossing.Using pre-embossed papers.Embossing with found items.Just have fun playing!'

Loved this challenge as it gave me a chance to use some of my new Cuttlebug embossing folders. Only problem was I didn't know which ones to use so went with this one in the end.

Materials used are more yummy Crate Paper PP, ribbon from Little Silver Hat, hand stitching and inking to edges.
