Oldie But Goodie Baby Challenge ,, GD card

I was thrilled to be asked to be a GD for this month on the Oldie but Goodie Challenge :-) thanks girls xx

For the next fortnight the theme is

BABY ,, cute :-)


This Penny Black Baby Hammock stamp was one of the very first ones I bought and is still one of my faves :-) I coloured the image with Copics and inked the edges with Stormy Sky distress ink. The papers are Kaiser Craft and I used a Martha Stewart butterfly punch , some ribbon, a ribbon slider and a few Robins Nest Dew Drops.


I made a tag to write a greeting on that could slide behind the welcome baby sentiment :-)


Thanks for looking :-) I appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)

We are sponsored by the lovely Peggy Loves Vintage, unfortunately I had already made my card before I thought to check and didn't have time to make another one, so sincere apologies xx



This House Mouse Citrus Bath stamp was one of the 1st ones I ever bought,,,, my fave tipple is G&T and this image is perfect for me !!! :-) I have used this stamp so many times isnt it CUTE !! I coloured the image with Copics and inked around the edge with an orange chalk ink. The lemon paper is Kaiser Craft and the gingham is from Funky Fairys. The 'Cheers' is a Melissa Frances rub on and I added some gingham ribbon, some Star Dust Stickles and a few Robin's Nest Dew Drops to finish :-)
