Happy Birthday, Carol

I made this card for my friend, Carol on DPC.  In her bio it says that she likes purple/lavendar and tried to go with that theme as i made this card.  I also got a new die i wanted to try out.  I knew it could be made on my cricut, but for the price of $3 it was worth buying :)

Here is my card using Magnolia's Tilda with big tulips:

Also used on this card is Joy Craft's Lacy Rectangle and Marianne's ivy and Memory box Anastasia border.

Don't forget to ask to see if we still have the above dies in stock at Dutch Paper Crafts

I've combined two companies this week for my challenge at Anyone for Anya.  First up is Nurse Anya from The Greeting Farm and second is a sentiment from "There She Goes".

I enjoy making cards for Nurses...i try to keep them in stock all the time.  This is the first time i've used this nurse stamp and it was fun to color...what also fun is the photo challenge this week at Anyone for Anya!

Another first this week is the red die in the background..i don't know where i purchased it, but it came from the UK because it has the pound sign instead of the dollar sign.   The company is called Crafts-Too.

This week at Anyone for Anya..our challenge is to use lots of glitter..super fun, huh?  I have used Anya Strolls and the funny thing is i had no idea that my team mate Blankina also used the same stamp...i love the variety we both have used with this stamp.

Here is my card...oh and one more thing...i am a fan of a TGF design team member named, Rosie and i love how she adds a large bow to her cards, so i thought i'd give it try this time...

A 1st year Baby gift for my friend Aga

To celebrate my friend, Aga's baby girl's first birthday, i made an explosion box for her using the pictures she took monthly using a sticker..i thought the idea of the photos were darling they are "inside the box and not so visible in the photos below".








the ovals framing the baby in the box are from Spellbinders called Floral ovals S4-356 (i used the purple one)

the square lace die on top of the box is Lifestyle crafts Nesting Square Doily Dies DC0256

nesting doily squares
 the paper lace die is from Cheery Lynn dies and is one of my favorites (as you know Jenee got me hooked on dies by sharing all of her dies from her DT) - Anastasia Border- B136


the little pink border is a punch i got for Christmas from a friend.  It is an EK Success punch.

The corner die is an actual "photo corner" die that i cut apart because it was the perfect size.
It too was from Lifestyle Crafts and was in a Corner It Kit #DG0290
