Scrapbooking with Baroque Motifs and Carte Postale


Baroque Motifs and Carte Postale are two of my favourite Stampin' Up! sets, and so I was happy when I came to scrapbook these photos the other night, and they matched beautifully with the photos. The Sage Shadow and Chocolate Chip colour combo was also a perfect match for this page.
These were some photos taken when Emily had just bought new sunglasses, and then she pulled a few funny faces too for the other photos.

I stamped the swirly scrolly design a few times diagonally across the page, added some little stamped white flowers, then stamped the bird from Carte Postale on each page - so quick and easy.

See how well it matches with Emily's t-shirt? (although I must admit it has taken me so long to get to these photos that this t-shirt has been handed down in the meantime!)


I handwrote the title with a dark brown gel pen. All done in about half an hour while simultaneously chatting, eating chocolate, and taking a few Stampin' Up! orders.

Too easy!

Carte Postale 50th Card

This is the card I made for my sister-in-law's 50th birthday.

I am so loving the Carte Postale set, especially with the Brocade Background papers.

It is just too easy to make something beautiful!

Birthday Cards

On the weekend we celebrated some family birthdays, so out came the stamps to whip up some quick cards ....


and a gift of a Note Box with 9 Notecards:

I decorated the box using the So Swirly wheel and the Carte Postale set
I made 3 each of 3 styles of notecard, hopefully my aunt can use them for any occasion.

For these cards I used the Carte Postale set:


This one ...Think Happy Thoughts, Short & Sweet, In the Spotlight and Friendship Blooms

and for this one I used A Little Bit of Happiness and Sprinkles:
