'Sweet Baby Girl', for Papirdesign September challenge.

Hi all,I'd like to share a layout that I made for our current challenge on the Papirdesign blog.  
I was given permission to scrap this beautiful baby girl and thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Just look at that adorable baby-face.
This months theme is 'baby''.

I also made this for the monthly challenge at Scrap for Help, to use a 'soda-clip'.

 As I used so many beautiful things here that I felt the urge to post quite a few close-ups for you.
I know I always say that Papirdesign has a very high quality to their products and I am very fortunate to be working with them. So true!!
You can also tell for yourself the products are beautiful!

I used the PD alphas for my title together with the chipboard word 'Baby' from the  family-themed chipboard set. The half pearls are made in lots of different colours.

Just look at that lovely pearl flourish. I love both the look and the finish on them. 

 I used a leftover piece here, and just look at the effect!

The mini roses come in a multitude of beautiful colours and the chipboard hearts come in several colours as well. Why not get some red ones for the Christmas-cards? :-)

 I hope you enjoyed my page and I would love for you to take part in our current monthly challenge.

We're looking forward to seeing what you create with the beautiful babyproducts from Papirdesign.

Hugs!

Winner of my RAK for the Spring Fling hop and a card for baptism.

Hi! Just a quick post today with a card I made for a baptism of a beautiful baby girl last Saturday.

I wanted to have a handmande card, and was able to make one really quick one using some of my scraps and a few embellies. I used the collection 'Beautiful Memories ' from Inkido which has quite a few designs that are perfect for these occations. The baby-image was cut from one of the sheets that has so many of these similar designs. Really quite a perfect supply to have at home if you have many babies 'near you'.

This card is up on the Inkido blog today together with a layout that I shared a few days ago as my contribution to the Scrap 4 Help challenge for March

Scroll down to the previous post if you would like to see more close ups of this one .-)

We also have a challenge at the Inkido blog right now, hosted by Kelly.

Scrap For Help March challenge. Inkido 'Beautiful memories'.

For the PaperHaus Spring Fling hop scroll down a couple of posts!!

Hi, I cannot believe how fast time flies!!
 Already nearly a week into the month of March... This month is widely regarded as the beginning of Spring in these parts, and I may say it is a bit hopeful actually. The days are getting longer and the light is returning. It's great!

Today I want to show you what I made for the March challenge at Scrap For Help.

The design team has been using both burlap and gauze so I think that would be ok!

I made this page with the new collection from Inkido called 'Beautiful Memories' a feminine and lovely collection full of pretty elements to fussy cut and combine.

Here are some close ups of some of my details and of the pretty flowers and other embellishments that I have used. I used a Spellbinders die for the circles and some scalloped scissors to cut out the round mat for my photo.

The challenge said to use gauze, and so I did. I cut small square pieces of the fabric and sprayed it with mist. After it dried i pulled loose the threads and made little 'nests' with them. I then added these to different areas of my page as embellishments to compliment the flowers.

 

This wouldn't be a layout by me unless I added some stiches to it  here and there....

I added some texture to the die cut rounds by going backwards and forwards a few times with the sewing machine over the cardstock.

I fussy cut plenty of pretty butterflies in different sizes and added a tiny blue chrystal to them.

They are flying all over my page at the moment :-)

Here are a few of the pretty papers I used:

That's all for now. Enjoy the rest of your day!! <3

Hugs!
