Small Frantic Stamper baby tags

Hi everyone!

I've been making some tags for my stash....this time a few baby tags. 

I like the Tag Builder set FRA-DIE-10152 as it has the toppers you can cut out in colors. Adds so much to the project.

The Nappy Pins are a cute set for babies..I love the tiny animals!( FRA-DIE-10639) Here I chose the hippo and elephant. My 2 year old grandson LOVES the lion. The set comes with 7 animals and then the original pin top. The pin top has a tiny heart in the middle which I also adhered to the pins for fun.

Finally, the sentiment HELLO is stamped in black from CL-172 Florals and Greetings.

Thanks for stopping by!

Today Sandy has a sketch challenge for us at The Paper Players:

I made a baby card with Taylored Expressions Little Bits Rocking Horse. I set him on top of the die sentiment from....from where?  I don't know! I have had the die cut a long time, and have no idea where it came from. But it sure is cute. If anyone recognizes it, let me know!

Then I backed it all on some scalloped Tutti Design rectangles.

Marianne Designs Eline's Giraffe Baby Card for The Paper Players

Many of you know that my mother in law has been battling cancer for sometime now. Last week she passed away. 

She was always there for me, and stepped right in when my mom passed away. I will miss our phone calls, visiting my kids with her, playing Farkel,her smile and sense of humor. She was my friend, my shopping pal, and I loved her dearly.

It's been hard blogging this last month as I tried to spend as much time as possible with her. I tried to preschedule posts, but I wasn't able to keep up with it all.

In fact it was my turn to host at The Paper Players Sunday. One of my teammates stepped in for me. Thanks Joanne! Not only did they cover for me, they also sent me a basket of daisies. I was SO surprised when I saw them at the funeral, and so deeply touched. 

Sometimes I wonder why I blog, and I guess this is one of the main reasons. It's the friends you make sharing this hobby of ours!

So a big thank you to The Paper Players!

Here is the post I meant to have ready for Sunday:

I went straight down the first row with die-cut,baby, and blue. I used the adorable giraffe from Marianne and backed the lil guy on a scalloped rectangle from Cheery Lynn. The blue background is from Sue Wilson's scalloped lattice frames. I love that beautiful stitched lattice! The sentiment is also from Sue Wilson called "Stuffed Animals."

Welcome to the Cheery Lynn Veriloquent Vintage Blog Hop.  If you arrived from Cheryl's Blog  you are on the right track.  If not, why not head back to the Cheery Lynn Designs Blog  and start from the beginning so you don't miss any of the terrific projects. 

Reminder...

There will be a $20 prize giveaway for one random person who comments and answers the questions on the Cheery Lynn blog!

Today I'm sharing a gingham card set that I made with some of the awesome vintage dies from the new release. There are 23 new die sets, and as usual with Cheery Lynn dies, they cut perfectly and have amazing detail!

 The first card features Decorative Accessories. I cut out the corset in some lavender gingham, and the hanger in silver foil. Then I did some layering. I backed it on the Vintage Bracket and the Vintage Tile, and finally onto an oval nesting doll. I added some Dusty Miller Frame Corners and the "Hello" sentiment. Several pearls completed the card.

For the blue gingham card, I used the new baby pram. It's adorable! I layered it on a Vintage Tile,the Mandy Doily, Wrought Iron Fence and a Scalloped Rectangle. I added the sentiment "Baby," and a few more pearls!

The last card of my gingham set is in pink. I used the Decorative Bird Cage and the Dusty Miller Square for this one. The tiny bird is from Bird on a Branch,and I backed it all a Celtic Rectangle. This time I added some pink pearls!

Here's a list of the Cheery Lynn dies I used:

B899 Decorative Accessories

Sue Wilson Shadow Box Baby Card

Today LeAnne is hosting a color challenge at The Paper Players:

This was SO hard!!! 

First of all, I didn't have any lemon lime twist, so I had to improvise. I found some paper in my cricut papers that I thought was close. Then I couldn't come up with anything...just a blank.

 I had recently been making some baby cards with Sue Wilson's Shadow box dies, so I thought...why not a baby card?

So that's what I did! 

I filled all the little boxes with cute little baby things, all from Sue Wilson.
