A Barnyard Babies 2nd Birthday Celebration Card from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Happy Wednesday Crafters ;0)

I have a special 2nd Birthday card to share with you this morning. This was made for a friend's grandson who we celebrated with at the weekend. He lives on a farm and loves spending time with the animals. I created this card for him last year with the same stamp set and wanted to use the lovely farm animals again for his 2nd birthday.

I started with a Marina Mist cardbase which I layered with Wild Wasabi. I then used my Basic Black ink pad to stamp the farm animals all over my Whisper White layer.

For the feature layer I stamped the number 2 from the Number of Years stamp set. I then stamped it again on to the sticky bit of a post it note to create a mask. I then stamped the cow to make it appear like he is peeking out behind the number. 

I hand coloured the cow and chick with my Stampin' Write Markers and then added the black outline to my number 2 to make it stand out more. The final detail I added was Clear Wink of Stella painted over the top of the 2 to give a bit of sparkle.

New Baby Cards from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Good morning my lovely crafty friends. How was your weekend? Lots of very productive cardmaking and crafting here ;0) I've been busily prepping for upcoming classes as well as working on my many Stitch Alongs (I seriously need to stop signing up for these- 4 is quite enough to be working on!)

I'm a little late posting these two new baby projects. I've had a crazy week with the girls and end of term so things have been a bit off schedule. But better late than never I say.

Two of my friends gave birth last week and I wanted to make them both special cards for their little girls.

The first card uses the gorgeous hostess set Love You Lots (I partially inked the stamp to miss the little mouse) alongside the Balloon Punch, Labeler Alphabet, Playful Palette Paper Stack and Playful Backgrounds stamps.

I used a Smoky Slate marker to colour the shadow under the elephant. I also adhered the balloon and then doodled the balloon string with a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker.

The second card I created using the Playful Palette DSP as my main layer I then added the stamped lamb from Barnyard Babies (which I punched with my Sweetheart Punch) and the Labeler Alphabet name and sentiment.

As a final detail I added the little In Color Enamel hearts.

I have lots more to share this week including a 2nd birthday card and a special thank you set for my little girls keyworker at preschool.

A Barnyard Babies 1st Birthday Card from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Good morning crafters.

How is your week going so far? I hope you enjoyed the lovely weather over the weekend? I had my fab ladies over on Saturday for my July card class. We had lots of fun creating and chatting.

I had a special 1st birthday party to go to on Saturday evening. My friends grandson lives on a farm and he was having a big party to celebrate his birthday. So I wanted to make a special card and knew the Barnyard Babies stamp set would be perfect.

This is what I came up with:

I used a cardbase measuring 10cm x 29.7cm. I scored the long side at 9.9cm and 19.8cm. This gives you the three panels to stamp and means the card will stand up on its own.

I then simply stamped all the animals and coloured with my Blender Pens and ink pads. I used the little banner from the White Christmas and coloured with my Island Indigo Stampin' Write marker (meaning I was able to not colour the Happy Christmas greeting). I actually stamped the banner first so I was then able to place the goat and sheep correctly with my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig. 

Just a quick reminder. My Christmas Craft Days are coming up in August. I have three spaces available for my Monday August 17th class. The class takes place from 10am-4pm at my home in Newport and is a fun filled day of crafting, cardmaking, fun 3d projects and basically everything you need to kickstart your Christmas Crafting mojo for 2015. Class cost for all materials and fun prizes is £25. Drop me a line on poulton_sarah@yahoo.co.uk if you'd like to book your spot.
