Engagment Card for My Daughter and soon to be Son in Law!

My daughter was taken by her boyfriend to Disney World Florida Whilst they where over there they visited Gatorworld and at the end of the last zip line He was on one knee and asked her to marry him - such an exiting time This is the card I made them for when they got home The Mickey and Minnie silhouette came from the Esty store I used my Brother Scan N Cut to cut the image I hand wrote their names above the images and added a bit of colour The scrolls at the bottom are a roll of stickers that I picked up in poundland The ribbon was left over from another project and was in my stash drawer Now I just have to plan the wedding invites for when they get married next September!

Baby Announcement

Image
My friends daughters has just found out she is pregnant She asked if I could make some announcement cards so she could hand them out to her family on mothers day and tell them all at once. She has had her first scan and wanted a space to put the scan on the card. I used some twine to create a washing line and little pastel pegs to hang some clothes These where cut using some X-Cut dies The two middle pegs will be where the scan hangs I have also used letters in building blocks to put the name of each person and the words new baby. I have made seven with different pastel colours as the sex of the baby is unknown. Hopefully this will be a nice surprise for them all.
