Welcoming new baby cards

Our family circle is just bursting with new arrivals! I posted earlier in the week that our family welcomed twins, and between August and December, several of my friends and family members are becoming grandparents along with a friend of my daughter's welcoming their second. So out came my crochet needles and multiple trips to the store to pick up yarn in varying colours. By end October, I'll have made 7 baby blankets and included a variation of this card with them. So excited to share in everyone's joy. Welcome to the world little ones!

Twist: Use the de-bossed side of the Seasonal Cheer Mini Embossing Folder

Today's card features the debossed side of the Seasonal Cheer mini embossing folder with leaves. Looks just a wee bit different, eh? It was by design - not an oversight and I kind of like how different it looks. I added a couple of hand cut out leaves as my focal point. I absolutely love creating for fall and using earthy autumn colours like Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Pecan Pie and Golden Glow. Warms my heart!

Surprise: We welcomed twins into the family!

A joyous occasion for our family: My daughter and her husband welcomed twins! How wonderful it was a boy and a girl. No one in the family knew it was going to be twins so a great surprise to be meeting my newest grandbaby at the hospital on September 6th only to find out there were two babies. These are the cards I made using my favourite - and long retired - All for Baby stamp set and die bundle. The colours are a match to the baby blankets I crocheted for them. Feeling blessed indeed!

Softly Woven embossing feels like fabric!

The tight embossed pattern provided by the Softly Woven embossing folder is ideal for creating a fabric look to your paper. First I stamped the floral image from Radiant Sunflowers all over a piece of Cloud Cover cardstock then embossed the layer. Wow factor for sure! I added a simple greeting from the same stamp set and some rich jute twine to complete the look. Enjoy!

Paper Puzzling is a thing!

Get your Fab on with these bright bold fall colours: Calypso Coral, Secret Sea and Pool Party. These paper is so darling with autumn images. It cut a piece of 3" x 4" into 3 equal vertical strips then pieced them back together onto Cajun Craze leaving a wee bit of space between the strips. I'm puzzling all the time! Wishing you a fabulous day!
