Baby Buggie Card Share
Ok, now here is the card that I wanted to share that totally matches the baby box that I shared yesterday! Is it too cute or what?? I LOVE it! The idea came from I card I recieved from Sandy Hancock at our last quarterly meeting!
Recipe for Card:
Stamp Set:
Ink: Basic Black
Cardstock: Whisper White, So Saffron & SAB Designer Series paper
Accessories: Big Shot, Scallop Circle Die, White taffeta Ribbon, 1' and 3/4 " circle punches, trio flower punch, eyelet border punch, 1/4' punch (retired)
The only tricky part was taking the cardstock and lining it up to the edge of the Scallop Circle Die. Next one I'll put it just a little bit closer. But just play around with it. Super fun to make and How cute the buggie!
Here they are together! I would so wrap the box in cellophane and tye a ribbon on the top and add a tag! : )
Now for the box…I just cut a piece of cardstock 3 1/8 x 8 1/2. Scored at 2 1/4 on the 8 1/2 side. Make 2 of them one for each box. Use your Wide Oval Punch or any other punch you may have to make the handle. Do one at time as the Cardstock is to thick to go through both of them. I also used sticky strip to attach to the boxes.
Anyway, Ill have some more ideas I'm sure when I get back from Convention. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask. I'll have a sneak peek of my Convention Swaps tomorrow..I'm editing the photos tonight.
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin',

Announcement & Quick Share
Ok, my daughter graduates High School tomorrow so I've got LOT'S going on. But I wanted to post really quick. First I am going to be going on vacation for 2 weeks coming up this Sunday (Father's Day) we are heading to Monterey…stopping first in Port Hueneme (Mandaly Beach)…then on the way back from Monterey we are stopping in Pismo Beach then Anaheim to see the Pirate Adventure. It should be a GREAT vacation. SO while I am gone I am going to have a HUGE Give Away. To find out the details just subscribe to my monthly newsletter at the upper left hand corner under my photo. My mid-month email will have all the details and will come out on Sunday. Only those that are subscribers will be eligible.
So now for my share. I needed a quick baby notecard and gift and I pulled out my "Pun Fun" set. I LOVE this set and the versatility of it. It's the perfect stamp set for beginners.

The Baby Bear you ask? He to is handmade – I crocheted him all by myself. LOL!!! I couldn't resist taking a photo of him too! Before my obssession for Stamping I crocheted. I still do and love it, my Mom taught me when I was 12.
I will have a post go out automatically tomorrow while I'm getting ready for Graduation. So stop by and see the card I made for my son's 5th Birthday.
Oh yes, did I fail to mention that we had his party this past Saturday since we are going to be gone on his Birthday. UGH!! I SO need a vacation!
