Friday Sketchers #70 Baby Shower Card

Hi Everyone,
I have finally had a chance to participate in the Friday sketchers challenge. The challenge this week is by Jacque who is one awesome designer. You can find the sketch here and also check out the samples by all the other fabulous designers. The prize for one lucky person is being offered by Digital Stamp Oasis. Ellie is offering 5 single images as the prize.
I needed to make a baby card for a up coming baby shower my daughter and I are giving for my daughter's friend. So I choose to follow Jacque's sketch this week.

Here is the inside of the card I left it pretty plain.

I had to show you a picture of the 3 tier diaper cake we made for the new Mom as a gift and the flower arrangement I made for the cake table.


Here is another picture of the card. Sorry I actually screwed up and did not mean to put this at the bottom but oh well.
If you have time to leave a comment I would love to here what you think of my card.
Thank you so much for stopping by and any comments that you would like to leave.
Have a great week.
Hugs,
Nancy

Daddy's Birthday Card by Blaize

This is my 7 year old granddaughter Blaize. She wanted to make a birthday card for her Daddy from her and her brother Izzic. So she selected a Tilda to be her and a Edwin to be her brother and started coloring away. She told me that she realized that she colored her brother with kinda girl colors but she figured that it would be ok because she has a friend (Bradon) that has a pink t-shirt that says real men wear pink. LOL She also explained that her brothers hands are black because he likes to wear his black gloves. Mommy says that she has only seen him wear them once. Any way that's the story behind the color choices.
Blaize picked out all the papers that she wanted to use and I did all the cutting other wise it is all Blaize's card. I loved it and most of all so did her Daddy.
Blaize said that since she kinda did girl colors on the front she would make the inside more boyish looking. LOL

Hope this cute little card brought a little ray of sunshine your way.
Thanks for stopping by.
Hugs,
Nancy

Magnolia-licious DT Tricks-n-Treats Blog Hop

Hi ...Here is my entry to the Magnolia-licious DT Blog Hop check it out here.
This was so much fun and the Design Team had some very cute sets for us to draw inspiration from.
I selected the Batty Boo Basket for my treat container you can find the directions here
and I decided not to put a handle on mine.
On my card the haunted house is a cuttle bug folder that I embossed on some Core'dinations card stock and then sanded it. I used stickles in one window and on the moon. I also used Stickles on Tilda's dress and Pumpkin. I also used several of the little goodies that Diana sends along with your Magnolia orders. If by some strange reason you have not ordered from Diana check out her site here. Diana has the best customer service and also has discounts for Magnolia-licious members.



Thanks so much for stopping by and I would love to here what you think of my set.
Have a great week!
Hugs,
Nancy

Magnolia-licious August DT Sketch




Hi Everyone,


Where oh where has this month gone? My grandson Dakota started back to school last week and my granddaughter Blaize starts back Monday. The summer sure did fly by. Anyway I final got my card for the August DT Sketch finished here is the link to the web site.


The sketch this month is by Becca Feeken if you have not visited Becca's blog you are really missing out she is a very talented lady and has some wonderful tutorials on her blog. I followed one of Becca's tutorials to make the folded flower on top of my small circles. They are so easy to make and they can make a fabulous bow for a gift if you make them bigger. Here is a link to Becca's tutorial for these flowers: http://www.amazingpapergrace.com/spellbinder-ruffled-flower-tutorial/.


The design paper that I used was Basic Grey: Urban Prairie


I ordered my Tilda from Sweden but since I did that I found out that we can request a Tilda if Diana does not have her and Diana will do her best to get it for us so from now on that is what I will do. Diana has a large inventory of Tilda's and fabulous customer service. So buy your Tilda's here .


I used Stickles on Tilda's wings, hair bows and strawberry. On Tilda's crown, shoes and centers of my flowers I brushed on Shimmerz Blingz Gold Glimmer.


I made the center of my flowers with my new I-top tool it seemed to work very well.


Thank you so much for stopping by and looking at my card. Oh that reminds me I tried to follow Claudia Rosa tutorial on how to edit your pictures. If you missed Claudia's tutorial you can find it here. I hoping that my pictures will look a little better.


I would love to here what you think of my card.


Thank you so much for stopping by. I really appreciate all of you!


Hugs,


Nancy
