This card is made from Stampin Up friends who know (from 2014 catalogue). 

.

 I've stamped and embossed in pool party on to navy card (I like the coloured embossing - so effective especially on coloured card). As  the stamp co-ordinates with labels framelets, I've used one to cut out my image, and a larger one as a mask when sponging the background.  The butterfly is a memory box butterfly and is just the finishing touch.

Hello Baby

Both girls have friends with babies on the way, and requested baby shower cards.  Both are using memory box dies (so cute).

This one is using a background made from photo paper (nice and shiny).  The baackground roughly brayered and sponged, using for inks/card pool party, calyspo coral and hello honey (not sure if a boy or girl, so played safe with yellow)  and wanted to stay away from too obviously pastel baby blue and pink).

This one is so cute - love the little onsie die.  This uses baya breeze ink which is sponged on to neutral seam binding ribbon and a onsie.  The embossing folder is Couture creations tied together.

Congrats Rachel & Laura.
