We have had an influx of babies recently in my circle of friends, via work, nursery and all sorts. I kinda like it, because i always find baby cards super fun to make!
I made a card for baby Hugo and then realised that i didn’t have the video camera running, so i made another girl version of the card on tape so i could share it with you guys. Good job i did, because not long afterwards my work colleague Jennifer had a beautiful baby girl! Congratulations on your new bundles of fun!
For todays card i used some Lawn Fawn and paper smooches dies, some echo park paper, and a mix and match of stamp images. I hope you enjoy the video.
Thanks for stopping by. I’m off to make some more baby cards for baby Charlie and Felicity. These tiny humans are everywhere!! 🙂
I made this card a little while ago for our work colleague, John, who took the brave step of packing his bags and moving to Spain. It all happened so fast, but i know he will do GREAT over there!
Of course, i had to send him off in style with his own bespoke HHC card! I used this super cute fox /wolf critter from the mama elephant up and away stamp set, coloured with some spectrum noir pencils. I also used the paper airplane image from lawn fawn- isn’t it cute how it looks like he is throwing it!!
For the background i wanted to invoke the idyllic hues of a spanish pool, so created a watercolour effect using distress inks.
More robots! But i can’t really help it – they are adorable, right?
I have been making cards for Craig’s work, so I am trying to make some that would appeal to the geek masses, and these robots are just ideal! I think this card would work for either a boy or a girl.
I have used dies to create an aperture, or window, and then embossed the greeting behind – it gives a nice element of dimension and interest to the card.
My images are coloured using Spectrum Noir colouring pencils – i am loving these sweet little investments!
