Happy birthday mom

Its mom’s birthday, and with a nickname Bea she gets a lot of bees and flowers from me, so here’s a bee for Bea.  The embossing is cuttlebug, the flower Stampin up chalked and the bee punched from Martha Stewart.  I love all white cards but  thought this needed the flower and bee stripes colored…

I’m entering this in the flourishes  challenge from my time to craft   and the girly challenge from Tip Top Tuesday, and although the stamens are yellow hope this fits into the Less is more challenge too(use pink and black and white).

olw india

For the One Layer Challenge this week we had to use an image, a border, and bling ,  believe it or now this took over 5 tries and i still don’t like it very much.  Some times one’s tools aren’t quite right and its  the stamp mounters fauld fault… wish I’d have known how important mounting the borders   parallel to the edge was.   I may unmount these stamps  and put  on cling backing but don’t have time this morning.

FYI many comments are suggesting I get a stamp a ma jig, and I  have one but forget to use it thanks!!!!!

The  central image is from  Paula best the dots  from a set  fromStampin up ‘all in a row’.

New Year rabbit 2

For Chinese New Year my sister told me that new years rabbits should be wild and not cute bunnies but since I don’t have any real Chinese new rabbit stamps this will have to do since its Penny Black Saturday (sketch below) and Daring card makers have a new years rabbit challenge .  Here is a Penny Black bunny stamp and a JustRite happy new year stamp.  I punched  & pasted the flowers and swirls, chalked the rabbit added a cuttlebuged blue background.

Welcome Benjamin

The design sketch had a pin but not too sure if it looks a little strange pointing at the stroller.  My neighbors had a new baby in December and this is for the welcome gift.  The  background paper was from a Joann bin and the stamps are from  the Stampin up set Fun and fast notes. the design sketch is Mojo Monday  175, see below.   The Penny black  allsorts challenge blog is male, so i think this fits too.
