Oh Baby, what a month!

We we are approaching the final week for Unstampabelles current challenge - the theme  seems to have put people off a bit! We have very few entries to date. Pity 'cause this is the....

Random Prize:
TomBow glue just to indicate size.

Our Challenge?

To make a baby themed project, or use the expression "OH BABY" how you wish!  
The twist is to make a non-traditional styled project for a baby

Non-traditional can be just not using the traditional colours, or something less than the usual.

My take this week?
An unusual fold for a card - called a book fold - and non-trad colours


My colours are brown and blue

with a splash of red!


My images came from a 12 x 12 sheet of vintage baby images/poems  (name unknown) that I cut up

This is the front

An image fussy cut

The base card is SU card.

A (Torn) Look into the Past......

Hello Peeps - this was our sunset last night

Good huh! Wind every which way - just thought I would share.

Today over at Unstampabelles, we are entering our third week of a non-traditional baby project so I tried to think outside the proverbial, and came up with this card!


My sentiment is computer generated and my own idea - yes, my mind is quite cracked!

 A die cut carriage and embossed background


An image cut from a 12 x 12 sheet of baby images


 = a quirky card.

Why not go over to Unstampabelles, and see what else the DT have created, and then start planning your own project. Only four entries as I write this and a fabulous prize

Happy Easter and Welcome to April!


Hope you got lot's of chocolate!

I am actually allergic to chocolate - the brown variety. I can eat the white one sometimes. This morning I gave my husband his Easter chocolate and waited for mine - no show! I eventually reminded him of his duties - his reply, "It's bad for you!" Any replacement? Nope! Needless to say I was less than impressed! Some hours later he went to the supermarket and came home with a cheap packet of marshmellow eggs! I am still not impressed. He has lost soooooo many domestic points as a result!

This post is for the new Challenge#46 at Unstampabelles

This month our theme is 
OH BABY!


You can create a baby project of some kind or use the phrase to suit!
Easter babies, animal babies, human babies........

The TWIST is to make your project fairly non-traditional for babies...

This is the prize - the die; the Tombow is to show the size

I decided to make a label or a sign for the baby's room.  I am expecting several new little people in our family soon, and I was wondering what the name's might be.....I always liked Sam for either a male or female - Samuel or Samantha - so I used it for the name but it is not for any particular person.


Die cut shapes and HAND WRITTEN little verse



 If you go over to Unstampabelles you will see the other projects from the team - wonderful stuff. Why not have a go yourself and enter the challenge? Great prize!
