Lots of my friends are pregnant and having baby girls and i am in short supply of baby cards so i thought i should get a move on and make some so i have them ready! What better excuse than to use my lurvely new Stampavie Happy Family stamp! As soon as i saw this, i new i had to have it!

I followed this weeks sketch at Sketch Saturday and used my lovely MME Stella Rose Gertie Papers! I am loving this paper so much at the moment. The flowers are made using a punch and Card Candi and the swirl is by Marianne Design.

How lovely is the new Warren range? I LOVE IT!

It's sooo cute and perfect for all your spring & easter cards!

We now have the whole range in stock at MMCS!

I have managed to whip up two quick and simple cards with this range!

For both cards i have used the Warren Coloured Images, however you can get them to Colour In, just didn't have much time today so i chose the quicker option! I have also used the Cottontail Paper Packs, Die Cut Scallops, Card Candi & Tiny Messages!

Look out for more cards using this range, i gotta a feeling i'm gonna be making more cutie cards with it!

Little Acorn

My new gorgeous Lili Of The Valley stamps arrived yesterday and i had to have a bit of a play with them last night! Did you all get any, which ones did you get? I got 5 new ones, mostly bunnies, the cat one and the teddy bear one, just cute it was hard not to buy them all!

Here is my card using the Little Acorn Stamp

Apologies for the poor photo, the light here isn't very good, i will retake later!

I used this weeks sketch over at Friday Sketchers for the layout. I did change it around a bit tho!
