Oops!

Sorry folks! In the last post I said that the small SCALLOPED oval was from George- of course there is NO scalloped oval on George just a plain one. Sorry!

Fab new cart!!!!


I had another post planned for today, but the postman put paid to that this morning! He delivered 2 NEW CARTS all the way from the USA! I ordered them yonks ago and they posted them on the 11th and they arrived today! What a service!!! The carts are A Childs Year & Ashlyn's Alphabet ( I think only the first one is available here as yet) A Child's Year has TONS of beautiful vintage-style silhouettes of kiddies doing what kiddies do best! There is no layering with this one so you just have to go with the silhouette theme, but there are so many to choose from that you'll never be stuck for ideas. I chose a little high-chair image for these 1st birthday cards. I cut them from pink & blue glitter card (you don't HAVE to use black) and chose papers & cardstock to match. The images were put inside a scalloped oval frame over a panel of patterned paper edged with a Martha Stewart punch. I added a ribbon bow & cluster of roses then glittered around the frame. The inside was decorated with an oval with a number 1 cut into it and 'today!' cut from cardstock. If you get this cart you won't regret it - it's not just for kiddies cards there -are images suitable for a wide range of cards on there too!
Carts used:
High Chair image & small scalloped oval (inside card)- A Child's Year
Large scalloped oval- Aslyn's Alphabet
White scalloped oval (inside large oval)- George
Sentiment- Lyrical Letters (Jumbo font)
Thanks for dropping in!
