Bright Zoo Babies for the girl's...

So here's the girly version and the last one with this set for now. Not as bright as the boy's, but still rather colourful. Every time l wander out to my studio and look at them, l can't help but smile at just how cute those images are..:0)

Flower Shop & Polka Dot's...

I've been having a little play with SU's "Flower Shop" stamp and punch set and needed to make a card for a special friend...I do hope she has it by now...:0) I teamed it with Strawberry Slush & Polka Dot's so l could play along with this weeks "Friday Mashup" challenge, but have held off on the linking as long as possible in the hope she get's it first.

Anyhoo!...here's the challenge and my card.

Not sure why the front looks so orange, but it is definitely Strawberry Slush. I used my Markers & Blender pen to colour the flowers and yay! for the coordinating Pansy punch..:0) It certainly makes life easier.

Zoo Babies for the boy's...

So, l'm back with one for the "Boy's". This one uses Coastal Cabana, Basic Grey & White...love these cool modern colours for baby boy's and how cute is that "Toucan" ?

I'm so happy with how easy this set is to use, thinking l might just have a play with some "Brights" and see what can come up with.

Zoo Babies.....

Afternoon stampers!....I wanted to pop in and share this sweet baby card with you, made with Stampin-Up's super cute "Zoo Babies". I've teamed it with some lovely "New" colours from SU,  called Crisp Cantaloupe, Smoky Slate & Pistachio Pudding.

I have had so much fun playing with this set and just love the look of these fresh colours together. I'll be popping back later to share the "Boy" version in Coastal Cabana, which is very yummy too!

Just Add Ink #176...

It's Just Add Ink time again and our challenge for this week is "Just Add Blokes"...very Aussie huh! Well, actually it means you can add any age male, using any sentiment, be it birthday, baby, fathers day etc...no rules to this one, as long as it's blokey..:0)

So, l'm not really sure how blokey some will think this is, but it did pass the male scrutiny test with the men in my family, so that's good enough for me...They were rather impressed with the hand cut feathers and didn't seem to think the sequins made it too girly.

The Design Team have created some great masculine themed cards to inspire you, so don't forget to swing by the challenge blog and have a look.
