Video : Quick & Simple Quilted Baby Boy card!

~ lostinpaper ~ 13 Comments

Today at Scrapbook Boutique I have a very easy Baby Boy card using Bunny Love from Altenew and adding some ‘quilted’ dimension with the next level embossing folders from WRMK.  I decided to film as I created so you could watch the process.

I adore elephants on baby cards, I don’t what it is about them but they totally make me smile.  Today I have some fun Penny Black stamps and even though this card went back and forth a few times, I eventually did manage to finish it.

I know it’s meant to be a goose, but I wanted a duck and cause it’s yellow it’s a duck…   now.  I had so much fun creating my little ‘old school’ storybook scene and when you want a little simple shading then Prisma’s are my go to choice.  You can find this card over at The Alley Way Stamps Blog.  And while I’m here you may have already heard that TAWS is sadly closing it’s doors, but that means that you can buy their fun stamps at an incredible 40% discount, so head on over!

Oh my goodness, today turned out to be a mass of die cutting, but well worth it I think.  I kept the card quite CAS because of all the work that was involved int he background panel (and I didn’t want to cover it).  I filmed as I created so you could watch the process.

Something a little different for me today.  Sometimes I really struggle to get that nice ‘baby pink’ when I use Copics or pencils so decided to get out the blender pen with my Angel Pink Memento Luxe, and the colour is perfect!  I filmed as I created for you to watch.

Welcome to patterned paper at Muse!

~ lostinpaper ~ 19 Comments

Not sure if I may have just overdone it a little….   well, I did say that I wanted to use some patterned paper and so I did, a LOT of it lol.  I made a real mess creating this and at one point I couldn’t find my baby sheep at all, some hurried cleaning and he was luckily located all happy and ready to sit on the card front.

I can’t wait to see how this inspires you and maybe you can use just a little of your paper stash too!

Hello Baby!

~ lostinpaper ~ 16 Comments

Sadly I missed last month’s sketch with Lisa, what with an overseas holiday, then visitors and both our computers were in the hospital so I couldn’t even edit a photo…  gasp!  Now I’m back on track and had a few minutes to spare today (well not really I should be cleaning the house before our next visitors arrive tonight) but I ‘needed’ to make a card for fun.  So I thought I would film as I go just in case you had a few spare minutes to watch when you ‘could’  be cleaning the house too (wink)!
