Crafting musketeers challenge 39: babies

This is my design card for Crafting musketeers challenge 39: babies. Please click on the link to see the lovely crafting of the rest of the team and join in our challenge with your ribbon designs.

The challenge is being sponsored by Crafty Ribbons and I used the 'It's a boy' ribbon that they kindly supplied.

The background is an offcut piece of PSX baby paper that I've had for a long time. The giraffe and elephant are from a set by K & Co, other items from stash, including the lovely line of satin teddies.

CHNC challenge 288: vintage or anything goes as long as it's Christmas

This is my card for my CHNC challenge 288: vintage or anything goes as long as it's Christmas. Please click on the link to find out what my challenge is all about ... and I hope you will be able to join in with your festive entries.

For my card I used two vintage digital images kindly supplied by Dazzling Ace Designs, one of the sponsors of the challenge.

The glittery, shiny background paper is unknown (think it might have been a magazine freebie, but can't remember) and the two sentiment pieces were from a kit long ago.
