Handmade Hexagon background Baby card

Hi Crafty Friends,

Another way of using up my scraps of paper pads is to die cut hexagons and glue them all onto the background, I love this look too, I'm so addicted to hexagons at the moment! I think this is a Kaisercraft baby paper pad, are the papers beautiful?

Welcome baby bear scene card (Bugaboo image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I made this card for a magazine commission which was baby themed. I inked up the background sky with distress oxide inks and used Lawn Fawn die cuts to create the grass and flower background. The cute little image is from Bugaboo and I punched out a few little butterflies to finish the card.

Congratulations on your baby boy (Little Miss Muffet image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Here's my first of 5 cards to show tonight, I've been on holidays this past week or so and I think it shows lol, I can't stop making cards when I'm home and not doing housework! This card I created for a magazine commission, I created the background paper with a lime green copic marker, just roughly making lines across the paper. The die cut green frae was coloured the same way so that all the papers and image were the same colour. The image is from Little Miss Muffet but I haven't added the link like I usually do as the website wasn't up.

Patiently awaiting a baby princess card (Lili of the Valley image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a wonderful time celebrating with friends and family. We've been having beautiful weather for our summer, not too hot most days so it's been just perfect. We had a super hot day yesterday so my craft room was the perfect place to be so I have many cards to show over the coming days.

I think I mentioned these gorgeous alpha teddies late last year when I made a card for my English friend. I am in love with these bears from Lili of the Valley, you can buy them as a set and also numbers too. I have another card to show shortly that's made for a baby boy, hopefully you'll check it out too. They're digis so they're easy to add to your stash without having an extra 26 stamps to find homes for :)
