In at the last minute

I made this card last night for the Truly Scrumptious challenge from last Wednesday so I hope I have entered in time. The challenge was to follow a sketch and also to have handmade buttons on your project. I used the gorgeous Urban Prairie papers by Basic Grey again and another Paperbag Studios stamp. I love this plate of stamps but still need to buy it. These images were very kindly stamped by a friend for me. I have coloured the image with Distress Inks(am liking the effect you get with them)
The buttons have been made using pink Bazzill CS. I cut little circles which are not perfect by any means, pierced little holes in them and threaded through some fine ribbon. I still have to add a sentiment but didn't have time to look for the stamp I wanted
thanks for looking

Friday Sketchers and a special baby card

This week's sketch on Friday Sketchers was a challenge for me but I am really pleased with the way the card turned out. I used Urban Prairie papers by Basic Grey, some co-ordinating strips of Bazzill CS and the image is by Paperbag Studios which I have coloured using Distress Inks. The stamped swirls are by HOTP and I added a Prima flower with a small flower punch from the DP on top, secured with a black brad.I have a few friends with birthdays in March so this card is the first of many needing made this week.



My lovely little nephew is now home and I am desperate to get to see him and have a cuddle. I have used both Messy Rabbits stamps and the Messy Rabbits CD to make this card. The name has been cut using the Quickutz Squeeze and Moxie alphabet.
Thanks for looking and for any comments you may leave
