Hello!
Gosh it's been a little while! Work nightmare continue, but I have been
making the time to craft, not least because I have been going to my
friend Karen's crafty evenings
:-D I've really been enjoying seeing old friends again, although as
always there's often more coffee drunk, cake eaten and catching up than
crafting!
The result is that I've actually got stuff to share - well I did until
my internet died a death last week, just as I was about to post this
card. Anyway, shiny new router (or whatever it is called, although it
would have been far more helpful if the delivery guy hadn't just
left it round the back of the garage, but, I dunno, actually tried to
see if we were home (we were!). Just as well it was wrapped in plastic
and the rain hadn't got through... Tusk... well at least I'm back on
now, even if it's taken an extra day :-D
There I go again with the blah blah blah...
So on Tuesday the new release of Baby Billie
images from LCI are released, and as always they are fabby and perfect,
and the image I've used is spot on for when there's more than one new
arrival, but more on that in a minute!
You can check out all the DT's cards by visiting their links on the main LCI Challenge Blog, and there are oodles of prizes on offer, so why not have a peek!
OK, so I'm going to fess up and admit to loving my fellow DT Lauries white and kraft card (here)
that she posted a while back, so I took inspiration from her colour scheme, and took away and
added bits and bobs here and there (Laurie... are we still friends, or
do I need to grovel and/or send cash?).
I was going to heat emboss the back bit of kraft, but for the life of me I can't find my heat gun, I'm going to search the garage next as I suspect HB has nicked it to put heat shrink wrap round some cables on the mini!

So here's my card
And a close up of the sweet Twins! image... the greeting on the front reads Congratulations!, but only because I didn't have a "Commiserations" stamp... LOL! I did this one as a boy/girl twins card, but the image would look equally as cute coloured up for twin girls or boys
I used some of my new dies for this card - I've been hankering after
this fence die for ages and this card seemed perfect for it's first
outing, and when I saw this image the baby clothes die just happened to
fall in my basket too... no idea how that happened!
Hope you like it
Please may I enter these challenges
As You Like It Challenge - Favourite Die/Punch (I love this card, it's quite fussy, but not too cluttered, and love the neutral colours too)
