Lovely as a Lullaby

I generally love Moxie Fab World's Tuesday Trigger.  Well, lets be honest, what's not to completely love about Moxie Fab World?  Back to the post at hand, this week's Trigger, Lovely as a Lullaby, is NO exception.
It's so soft and cuddly!  Doesn't it make you just want to cuddle up in it?  It totally reminds of those taggie blankets!

Thought about not doing a baby theme but since the title of the trigger is Lovely as a Lullaby, I figured a baby themed card was appropriate & welcomed.  

Unfortunately the new PTI baby stamps are on the UPS ground slow boat to Seattle.
(Guess my order was too big that it couldn't go USPS.  sad face.) 

So, I had to break out what I already had.  I love my PTI Tiny Treats: Birthday stamps but have found that I don't really use them much- not sure why, but I do see myself pulling them out more & more! 

To my delight there are a ton of images in there that I could pick from! 

After playing around with a few quilting ideas and threading my sewing machine a bunch of different times, I decided to go back to clean & simple.  

Here's what I ended up with:

Butterfly Birthday

I'm back with another Paper Smooches birthday card for this weekend's birthday party festivities!

This one is for a little girl in my son's preschool class.  I chance I get to ink up my Giddy Bugs - I take it!


Pretty fun- used baker's twine to create the rainbow and used PTI cloud die for a cloud.  
For the sentiment, I used the Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler and embossed the top sentiment in white, while stamping the lower sentiment in black.  Something different, and I like how it adds to the card.

Monster Birthday Wishes

I've really been enjoying Paper Smooches Stamps lately.  

Seriously, I can't put them down. 

Anyways, this weekend is FULL of birthday parties so I needed to make a few cards really quick.  
Here's the card I created for a boy in my son's preschool class. 


This ADORABLE little monster is from the Falling For You set and the sentiment is a combo of the same set and the Birthday Buddies set. 


He needed a little something extra so I gave him a pinwheel to hold using the flag from Spiffy Scooters.  
Seriously, LOVE PAPER SMOOCHES!

Cosmopolitan Neopolitan

It's Tuesday Trigger time again over at Moxie Fab World and here's this week's Tuesday Trigger:  

I love it!  I decided to take the colors from this week's trigger and make another sweet something with it!  


Super clean and simple but fun and a card I can keep on hand at work... Sometimes I'll start on a card and then when I'm hours and hours into it- I realize I have no idea who/what I would give it for... I love cards that totally have a purpose!!!


 I felt like the sentiment (Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler) completely went with this My Cute Stamps cup of cocoa or perhaps it's a mocha...  Either way, YUM!
