Welcome Baby Girl card

Hi Crafty friends,

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas with friends and family.

I had a little giveaway in my last post for all my wonderful followers, only 7 of you read it and yet there were prizes for the first 10 commenters, oh well, maybe next time...

A lovely cousin-in-law of mine has just had a little tiny premature baby girl over the other side of Australia called Isabella, isn't that pretty? I created this card for her which also happens to work in perfectly with a few challenges that have a "new" theme hehe. 

The gorgeous digi image is from Di's Digis.

Merry Christmas to my lovely followers..

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy new year. I am so happy to be followed by 201 followers, it really feels special and makes my cardmaking that much more enjoyable knowing that others may like to see what I've created.

There are quite a few of you that always check out every card I create and comment on pretty much every one of them and I know that can be very time-consuming as I do make a lot of cards lol. So to say thank you I know that my really loyal followers will be the only ones to read this as I'm not posting a card, I would love to send you a gorgeous gift from my company Flourish with a Bling. I will send to the first 10 comments (anywhere in the world), I hope you're one of them!

You don't have to have commented on my cards ever, you just have to have been a follower before today as you are all very important to me.

You can have a surprise or choose from Lee's tree, Jack vine or Jasmine laser flourish, here are links to cards using these products so you can see what they look like if you haven't seen them before:

LBBS Purple Birthday card

I loved colouring up this Little Blue Buttons Stamp girl, I struggle with pleats in clothing but this one seemed a lot easier than most. This card is very clean and simple for me but I thought it suited her this time around, I'm sure I'll use her again with a busier card at some stage lol.

I think this is my last post before Christmas as it's Christmas eve afternoon here in Australia which is also my Mum's Birthday! So I wish you all a very merry Christmas and enjoy the silly season with friends and family but stay safe.

Christmas Gift pouch

Happy Holidays everyone!

We are giving our daughter some money as well as presents for Christmas and so I thought it would be nice to create a little gift pouch to put the money in. It was very easy to make, just folding the card over and making it slightly shorter at the front. Open the top and there is another fold that I've stuck down the sides with double sided tape so it's like a little wallet to keep the money safe inside. I'm hoping she likes it but I'm sure she will as she loves these Hannah Lynn images from Crafts & Me. I'm not quite sure why the skin has come up a bit odd as it doesn't look like that in real life.
