Mixed Bunch
This is one of my favorite stamp sets from Stampin' Up. I really like using the stamps that have coordinating punches. Here is a card that I made using some old Chatterbox paper from my stash. This is a great way to create a simple, yet elegant, looking card without very many supplies at all. Other than the patterned paper, just some cardstock, ribbon and a button! Oh, and an embossing folder. Its funny how we go through different crafting phases. Lately, I've been an embossing maniac! I have so many embossing folders that were just sitting in a box. Now, they are my new friends!

Hello Little Baby!
It hasn't been an overly crafty week for me, but I did get one card done. Its funny how some weeks you can get oodles done, and other weeks you just can't seem to find your mojo. At least I have SOMETHING to show for a "mojo-less" week. The bottom of the card was done using a border punch by EK Success. I spent way too much time trying to find the right colors of cardstock. Every color palette that I tried made the card look Easter-y. I was trying to find colors that were baby-like that would work for a boy or a girl. The card was looking kind of blah, so I added the little rhinestones for some pizzazz. I think that worked. Everything looks better with a little bling!
I also used an embossing folder from Cuttlebug and the sentiment is from Stampin Up.
