Zoo Babies
I attended the baby shower for Anthony and Shakarri Hamilton of Dublin, Ohio on Saturday. I am so proud of this devoted couple so my card to them had to have multiple WOW factors. The Zoo Babies stamp set makes a perfect baby shower card. The pristine cuts from the Dies by Dave framelits, popped the adorable giraffe and rhinoceros (for some reason I keep calling him a hippo) for first WOW. The second WOW is inside the card with a coordinating die cut gift card holder announced by that cutie potooty toucan.
A handmade card lets the recipient know how much you care. What was tucked inside the gift card holder may fade from their minds over time, but the card will stay in their hearts forever.

Don’t Cry Over Spilled Coffee
We made this card a while back at my October stamp camp. I actually sewed the paper with my mom's Singer Golden Touch n Sew sewing machine. It must be 40 years old at least. Its performance and my rusty skills were match perfectly to create the shabby chic effect I was going for. We used the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set to make it look like someone had spilled their coffee on the card. That was a hoot. Sponging added more shabbiness. I loved how it turned out for a masculine looking card. The crinkled twine used was defrayed burlap ribbon.
