March 12 Stampfest With Lynette

Lynette and I spent the day stamping yesterday. Below are photos of our cards.

The cards above were inspired by the Clearwater Convention and Pinterest.

These cards are our rendition of the Archiver's 2013 Easter Kit with 4 Tim Holtz Mini Blueprints: nest, egg, bunny and butterfly. 6 x 6 Paper: The Sweetest Thing-Lavender by My Mind's Eye.

Below are some close ups:

Stamps: Hero Arts, Stampabilities, Stampin' Up! and stamps from Lynette's stash
Distress Inks, Versafine Black, Stampin' Up! Markers, Colored pencils
Labels 1 Spellbinders Nestabilities Die

Sewing: Baby Set & Table Runner

Made this baby outfit for our niece's baby, Caitlyn, who was born Feb. 6, 2013. I used an old Stretch & Sew pattern for the top. The pants were made with a wonderful free pattern found at Amber Dusick's site, Make Baby Stuff.com  It was refreshing to find this pants pattern which seems to be correctly sized 0 to 3 months. I don't know why commercial patterns are always sized too large!

Here is the new baby card I made:

Materials used:  Cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder, Nestabilities oval dies, Stampin' Up! stamp and ink.

Below you can see another 10-minute Table Runner I made for a friend's birthday.
