New Baby


This is the second card that I made with my new Pink Cat Studio stamps. They are so cute and fun. This is the card for my friend who had the baby making her 1st daughter the big sister who is getting the other card...(sounds like a mouthful)

I used paper piecing to make this card, on the shirt. The images are colored with SU markers. I also used my new favorites: oval punch and scallop oval punch for the sentiment. Then I used a pale pink button, also from SU to put next to the sentiment. I had a lot of fun making this card, I hope you like it.

Thanks for looking.

Happy stampin'!

Big Sister

I got my new Pink Cat Studio stamps and was so excited to use them. I love this Lily image (I also think it is kind of cute my daughter's name is Lily), so I really wanted to use her. I stamped her with stazon ink and colored her in with SU! markers. I used design paper and cardstock from SU! as well as ribbon. The flowers were punched using my cuttlebug machine. Then I used my new twinkles from Taylored Expressions. They are so cute and little sparkling rhinestones in various colors. I use my SU! crystal effects to adhere the twinkles as the purse handle, center of the flower on her belt, and earrings. I also used it to add dimension to her purse and ponytail holders.

As I was making this card, I decided that I was going to send it to my friends 2 year old daughter because she is a big sister now. I really like it and I hope she does too.

thanks for looking!
