I was commissioned by a friend to make a baby boy card for her friend. I used the Nesting Lace Circle dies from Lifestyle Crafts for the base card (these dies are fab). I also got chance to use their bunny too. He has a very soft tummy, feet and ears!

Dies used to create this project:
Lifestyle Crafts Nesting Lace circles (DC0155), Easter Bunny (DR0056), Nesting Frame Die 3 (DC0176), Tiki Alphabet (DA0152)

Christmas - Featured Designer Challenge by Ute Thenert

Oh, how I love to make Christmas Cards with all these shimmering and glittering papers. I took different green tones of papers for the fir trees.  I used the Cookie Cutter Tree Dies from QuicKutz for the smaller card.  And, naturally a little angel must not be missing.

Is it really that time again? It seems so..........
Now, here is my first Christmas Card. I used the typical phrase for Santa from Quickutz, Jolly #7 HoHoHo .The snowflakes were made with the (snowflake die RS-0386) also from Quickutz. Only a basis card, a little piece of patterned cotton and the Santa Motif Stamp, that´s it.
