Another Tent topper cad



Here's my 2nd tent topper for the day...Now to clean up the mess I've made!!!

This card is for a nail client of mine who is just gorgeous!!! She came to get her toes done with about a week before she was due. Now this young lady is normally toothpick size, so imagine her with a 9lb+ baby inside and with boobs!! She was just gorgeous pregnant, it suited her to waddle!!

Welcome to the world baby Sarah.

Hi everyone,
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and have recovered enough to celebrate the New Year in style!!
I've just completed a card style called "tent topper". I did this for a friends wedding this coming Saturday. I'm really pleased with how it turned out. I've continued the black, white and gold them on the inside of the card as well, with a little border of black hearts along the bottom layered onto the gold heart vellum along with 2 little red glitter hearts in the bottom right hand corner.
I have to make a baby card as well today and am thinking a nice monogram "S" (the baby's name is Sarah) on the circle bit with some lovely soft pinks and lilacs :) I'll post a picture if I get it done before midnight!!
If you'd like a WPC file of the card pattern just let me know and I'll email it off to you.
Have a wonderful day,
shell xoxo

Hi all,


Long time no chat!! Life has been hectic to say the least for the past couple of months. It's only 6


sleeps till the man in the red suit visits and I just can't believe how unprepared I am!! I'm on target for getting next years Christmas cards made so for those of you expecting a card from me this year, don't!!

I did however manage to make these gorgeous little night lights for some friends children. As an added bonus they double as money boxes complete with coin slot and rubber stopper in the base. They measure about 5'x5' so are really cute!

The glass brick/boxes I got from a local tile shop and then I just did a print and cut using my Gazelle with items from Letteringdelights.com.

I reckon they turned out pretty awesome and I hope Joel, Olivia and Brook like them as much as I do!

Have a wonderful Christmas everyone and I thank you for following my blog during 2009!

Loves, hugs & kisses,

shell xoxo
