A baby is born - by Amanda

Hi everyone, it's my turn to share some baby inspiration today, and I've made a card using the AKV Baby Horse image from this month's lovely sponsor, Bugaboo Stamps.  In fact I've made two cards, a pink one and a blue one, as there are a couple of nice details in the image that you can colour code.

I hope you like them.  For more info about the card, please take a look here.

A Baby Is Born - by Claire S

Hi Everyone!

It's my turn (Claire S) today to share my DT make for this month's challenge!

The theme for August is 'A Baby Is Born' and we are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps who are offering 7 digi stamps to the winner!!

Here is the card I made this month:

The digi stamp is from our sponsor this month and was coloured with pro markers, this panel was cut out and faux stiching added around the edge.  The sentiment is from Waltzing Mouse and was stamped directly onto the 6x6 card blank.  I added the pale blue ribbon around the card blank and then mounted the digi panel onto the card front with foam pads.

Day 9 - A Baby is Born

It's time for a new theme this month at The Crafting Cafe - A baby is born!

Our sponsor for this challenge is Bugaboo Stamps and the winner will receive 7 digis, that's right SEVEN digis of their choice!

My card was created using Baby Bundle Heart by Bugaboo.  I used my copic markers to color this adorable image then pulled out some paper from my stash, added layers & buttons for a quick and simple card.  The sentiment is from Paper Smooches.

August Challenge - A Baby Is Born - By Lindsay

Hiya lovelies, Lindsay here, today I have my A Baby Is Born themed  card made using a digi from our sponsor Bugaboo.

Before I post my card, I have some sad news and some happy news, this will be my last post as team leader and full dt member for Crafting Cafe (for a while at least) as I will be starting an art & design course at college in September and although it was a difficult decision to make I didn't feel I would be able to keep up with all the duties involved with being a team leader. I would like to say a massive thanks to Nikky and Dawn for giving me the opportunity to help them get this lovely challenge started and also for all of the support and friendship they have offered me, they are both amazing ladies and I count myself lucky to have been able to work with them.

Thank you for stopping by, I hope you will all join in with our challenge and if you wish to know more details about the things used for making the card please hop over to my blog

August Challenge idea!

Hi there,
Chris here again with the August theme New Baby.

With the lovely images this month being so linear, they lend themselves to creating a card from the whole image quite well.

Iv'e made a Rocking Horse Card with one Digi Image. I printed it out quite large, coloured it in with water-colour pencils and then blended the colours.  When it was dry I added 3D Gloss to make it all shine. I love the shape of this card as you can either let it rock or snip the bottom off in a straight line to stop it rocking.

Have fun with the lovely images this month and I can't wait to see what you come up with.
Happy crafting....
