A New Baby

Good morning all, it's Thursday already!

I hope you have something nice planned for the weekend!

I'm off out to lunch on Sunday to celebrate a family birthday

but as it's Father's Day, I'm hoping to treat my dad to lunch on Saturday.

If not, we can make it another day!

The card I have to share today is another left-overs card!

The little image was a left over piece from the La Pashe

Decoupage sheet Baby Bath.

My card base is 6"x6" & I've added a design paper which is also from La Pashe.

I made a panel using another La Pashe design paper.

I cut out the image with a spellbinders circle die & matted on  to a scalloped circle

cut from the same CS as the base. I also cut a little frame from the same cs &

popped it up on some foam pads for dimension.

I added some ribbon & lace from my stash before I added the panel to the card 

using some foam tape for even more dimension.

The letters are die cut too.

A little side view which will hopefully show the dimension!

Thanks for popping in, I hope you like my little card!

Good morning all!

Leftover wine? Fact or Fiction? lol

Actually, the card I have to share with you today is another that

I made using left over bits & pieces from the  La Pashe  

Grumps -Time for Wine decoupage sheet!

For this one, I used an A6 card base.

I die cut the image & inked with green liquid chalk ink.

I cut a mat from a scrap of Kraft card, 

 a frame & some fish tails from the last of the scraps of paper

from La Pashe. The stars were also cut from some scrap paper.

I cut them out & popped them up on foam squares!

These were all given the ink treatment too!

The sentiment is from a Tonic Tape Runner with has 

Happy Birthday in several different fonts. I ran it along another

scrap of craft card which I fishtailed at one end.

The little bow is one of my recycled bits of ribbon!

Thanks for stopping by!

I hope you like this little card!
