Look at your baby blues LO

I'm back with a LO I made tonight for Scrapbook Steals Mid Week Mojo - Amethyst #5, based on this sketch...

Here's my LO!

I used Piggy Tales '5 Little Ducks' collection for all the paper, the stars I cut from Baby Steps cricut cart and the scallops and banner pieces I cut from CTMH Art Philosophy cricut cart, inking everything with my chalking ink.  I used Thickers and tiny alphas for the title.

Part of this LO challenge was to make a journaling free LO - I have to say it was nice!  I've really been forcing myself to journal these days, since its not something I used to do when I started scrapbooking.  But there wasn't a lot to say about this picture - it was just a great close-up of my oldest son's face, perfectly showing his beautiful blue eyes and red hair - so it was perfect to use for this challenge!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy 1st Birthday - take two!

My sister has twins, a boy and a girl, who will turn 1 in October - I made his card last week and made hers on Sunday night!

I used two of my new carts - Baby Steps (cupcake) and CTMH Art Philosophy (card base and inside/outside layers).  The sentiment is from My Pink Stamper 'Sweet Baby' set.  The paper is all from my stash and the ribbon is from American Crafts.

The inside sentiment is from Hero Arts 'Cupcake' set.

I cut the flower twice to give it more dimension and adhered the top one with pop dots!

I stamped a cupcake on the envelope (also cut from CTMH Art Philosophy) from the same set as the inside sentiment Hero Arts 'Cupcake.'

I'm entering this card into some challenges...
