Playful Pups Birthday

This card is made using the Mama Elephant Playful Pups stamp set which is coloured using my Spectrum Noir pens. I then used acetate to cut the Spellbinders diamond essence die. It didn't cut all the way through but I then hand cut around the outside. I also used the Spellbinders circles to cut kraft card and glittery red cards stock. I used the Stampin' Up inks: Pool Party, Cherry Cobbler, Real Red and Soft Suede to use the mini stamps to create the background paper.

This card is for the following challenges:

* Clean and simple - Allsorts,
* Sketch - Tuesday Morning Sketches,

Polkadoodles Bag & Invitation

I decided to make a bag to gift the plaque I made for the little boy I look after and of course I used the Sticks and Bones kit. All the items on the bag are from the Sticka & Bones kit from Polkadoodles.

While making this I also thought about party invitations for a children's party so decided t make one of those as well. The leaves are cut from the papers using my Brother Scan 'n' Cut.

I hope you like them,
