Stitched and Quilted

Would you believe that since I've started blogging in 2010, I've probably made less than 10 baby cards?  Even though they are so adorable and fun to make, I just haven't need to make many.

The Double "D" Challenge - Featured inspired me again.

Just look at all that quilting and they upper right has all those cute critters. My stitched dies are my most favorite, so I grabbed that IO Patchwork Elephant Die that I've had a couple of years and never used and cut up some pretty paper scraps. The double stitched frame is a rectangular die that I cut twice and mitered the corners to form a square frame. 

What's a baby card without lace? I went to my Silhouette Cameo to help me out and I found a design that worked perfect.

I used a really yummy We Are Memory Keepers embossing folder. 

This is possibly the most precious sentiment in my entire collection. I used the inside of one of those double stitched frame and accented it with some pretty  3D heart stickers.

On a humorous note.. there was something I did not notice this until I edited the photo. A die that overlaps the background paper cropped a word and I'm not sure what I will do about it. Maybe some more hearts or a bow?? Can you find it?

Puppy Smiles

One of my favorite designers made a card a couple of years ago that I just adored. When I saw this black and white pup, I knew I wanted to case Leslie's card.  I asked her and she said yes! You can see her card here.

And this is mine 

Okay so it isn't cow, but the black and white pup is cute too.  I tried to use her layout and colors, without using any of the same products.

I used Stamp On It # 3007 Dog with Garland digital stamp.  As you can see I swapped the garland for a bow, which I had in my Silhouette library.  I also cut the image with the Silhouette Cameo. I'm not so sure about the lady bug embellishment. It may be a little too big.

The sentiment is a Silhouette design.  This may be an New Years sentiment, but I just liked it for this cheerful little puppy.

I would like to enter my puppy with a bow in the QKR Stampede Challenge #306 Anything Goes
