A Special Card For A Special Person

Think with this post I'm going to finish my adventures in scrapbooking for April.

Originally I've been planning to create quite a different card, at least not a shaker one:) But, as they say, you never know what you will end up with in the end. And for the first time in my card making career, I've decided to use a stamp. Think this additional item completes the card. 

So please welcome the latest shaker card of mine:

Cottage Cutz Birthday Party Bear

Thanks to the recent discount on Cottage Cutz dies at Mavelu store, I've made up my mind to purchase a die I've dreamed of for quite some time now - a Birthday Party Bear.

You get not only a bear, but also some other lovely things connected with a birthday party: a balloon, a flower in a pot, a cupcake with a candle on it, and a gift box. Of course, all these items can be used in different card projects (which I will definitely try to do in the near future;)).

For my first project with this die I've decided to use all of its items. 

And this is how the following lovely birthday card has been created.

Hope a future owner will like it:)

As Simple As It Can Be - Fox

Wow, it's been a while since my last post here ...

Last couple of days were mostly dedicated to making new jersey pants for my little son and now when the mission is accomplished, I'm coming back to you with my new creation - a birthday card for a girl.

This simple, yet lovely card was influenced by the following challenges:

Creative Corner Challenges: For a Child

The only thing left to decide - who will be a lucky owner of this wonderful card;)

Shaker Card Balloon

The idea of creating another shaker card came to me while I was still working on the one with the clouds. Since my creations are mainly dedicated to children, this card includes some items from this theme as well.

Thanks to a new challenge of Everybody-Art-Challenge blog, a couple of pearls found themselves on a new shaker card with a cute little elephant holding a balloon.

Hoping for this card to find its owner as soon as possible.

For the time being, I would like to submit it into the following challenges:

Shaker Card Clouds

Inspired by one of Tina's shaker cards, I've decided to make my own one, a card that will look practically the same. Well ... being short of some cutting dies and stamps, I was pushed to create something with the tools which were at hand. Like this a new unique shaker card has been created:

Of course, followed by another one the very next day (to be honest, my favorite one:)):

 Guess both of them are worth being shared with Najlepsi Par:

In addition, I would like to submit the cards into these challenges:
