Baby Booties Card

  Happy Tuesday, Glad you stopped by. It's not that often that I get to make a baby card, so I had a fun time making this one.




As you can see, I got to create my card by combining my two favorite hobbies, card making and crochet. This card is for my great niece Amber she also crochets so I knew that I wanted to try and add something crocheted to the card. 

I searched around on the internet for something tiny to make but didn't find much. I finally came across a post on how to make tiny baby booties from a woman in Britain. I didn't have the kind of yarn that she used so I used the thinnest pink yarn that I had. 

Even though mine doesn't quite look like hers I do think they turned out pretty cute. I did crochet separate little pieces to make cuffs on the booties. 

I have had the circle sentiment with the moon from Stampin Up for several years. It was so nice getting to use it again. Added some Wink of Stella to the moon for some added sparkle. 

The pink cardstock is from Coredinations, Pink gingham ribbon is from S.U., Also used a stitched scalloped die and a tiny dot embossing folder and white Cardstock.

I thought I would also share with you a pair of real baby booties that I made to also give to her. I had never made booties before. They did work up fairly quick. These would probably be best for a baby around 3 months. 



I think the card and booties turned out pretty cute and I think she will love both. Looking forward to seeing the newest member of our family due in November. 

Hope you enjoyed seeing my latest creations and would love for you to leave a comment.

Happy Crafty Day to you all!

Cute Birthday Card

  Hello crafter's, we are already in the middle of September. I'm thinking the first day of fall is on the 22nd. Was hoping to get this posted earlier today but our internet server has been out most of the day. Hopefully they have the problem fixed. 

I have a birthday card to share with you all today. This one is for my sister's birthday.


 

I am beyond scarred of mice, I have tried using house mouse stamps before and I just can't do it.

But this one is a cutie and I had no problem coloring it. This is from Whipper Snapper Designs, and I colored it with alcohol markers. 

Thanks for stopping by, Hope you have a happy crafty day!
