Before I start with a description a little side note, You may notice there is no writing on it that when I started blogging me and my husband agreed that I would not refer to the kids or him in name for there personal reasons and photos of the kids a big no no. I got away with this one as they are 5 days old and 22 mths so they have changed a lot since then, especially the youngest. So that is why if they are referred to they are called oldest, youngest and hubby people who know us will know who I am talking about.So lets get started when I saw the sketch I knew what photos I want to do, I love these photos they have both sets of family in them and are a special time for us like I said the youngest was 5 days old, and were the first introducing of him to family.
You may be wondering why we are standing on the side of the road, we are watch Rigs for Kids a great event each year where disability children get to ride in big trucks for a parade.
I have used the simply scappin kit sweet nothings and vintage Vogue stamp set to make this page. The reason it is called delightful is when I was showing one of the Aunties the photos she referred to them as delightful and ones that you will keep. The word stuck with me so when I saw it in the kit it all fitted together.
The flowers have have been rocked and rolled to get the mixed colours of pink pirouette and Riding hood red, the leaves are from the new two bird punch and are punched out of kiwi kiss. I am going to miss these colours when they disappear in 5 mths.I have stamped on the bottom left corner and on top of the Designer paper the vine from vintage Vogue in choc chip. The designer paper at the top has been roughed up and curled to give it a vintage feel.
At the bottom I have used the eyelet punch then just above the brown strip is a border strip from the kit, just to break up the DSP.
The writing will go on the top right corner with date and time, and the bottom right corner with a brief description of why we are there in black ink.
Ingredients

Ink: PP, RHR
Stamps; Vintage Vogue
Simply scrappin: Sweet Nothings
This was another card I quickly made just before I left the house, and the ladies love it so I thought I would show you. It again has used the Vintage Vogue stamp set in Rich Razzyberry and Soft Suede. The Words are from Occasional Greetings and are a favourite (thank you Shelley).
Husband home for lunch so have to say bye till later. 
There is four scallops per flower. In the middle I have used a clear Rhinestone brad. The leaves are from Petal Pizzazz and again are in the Vellum. In person it looks very delicate. The flower pot has had Polka Dots embossed in white on the bottom section.
Step 2: stamp the image in Versamark ( when I first saw this I thought there must be something else done and looked for ages on the net but this is all you do no embossing, if I was smart I would have just tried it instead of google it).
Step 3: Brayer over the image and card stock in the colour you want. I have used the new Rich Razzberry. Tip here I have brayed one end first then did step 4 then repeated for the other end.
Step 4: Use a old cloth and wipe over the brayer, the area that you have used the versamark most of it will brush off. Which will give it a soft background look. If you had embossed it it would have been a Sharp white image.
That is all to it a very simple but effective technique, looks great in vintage look cards.
I have combined it with Just Add Ink Sketch Challenge this week, which if you haven't done Is a great one to start with so many possibility's I may have to do more before the end of the week.
ake last night I made five and matching gift tags while watching trashy reality TV show
I love the simple elegant of this box and tag, the colours match perfectly. The Easter bunny is from the summer mini and will be gone soon so if you don't have you better get in quick. This matches in with Just Add Ink challenge this week of Easter, I did make others for birthdays and baby's. You might not notice but the Kraft has been stamped in versamark with the "Hello Again" flower stamp which is also in the summer mini and is a favourite of mine, I will not be getting rid of this one for a very long time I use it all the time and for only $25.95 I think the best value stamp set that stampin' Up has brought out for a long time, it is great as a focal point stamp with the flower or used as a background.
well take care I will be back after Sunday with a tutorial and those lovely ladies who ask me for a tutorial I will be send soon just got to get over this weekend card making and will get straight onto it. 
I have used Choo Choo from last spring mini which I did ask permission from my boys to use, since I did buy it for them to make cards with. The boys love having their own stamps to play with when I make a card and they are about they always come and join in and go and get their own stamps.
If you would love to learn 3 different card folds then let me know and I can book you in, I will finalize date/time/cost over the next week and let you know. 
When I saw Just Add Ink colour challenge I thought the colours are perfect to go with it bright and cheerful.
Now you may think that I am the most prepared early buyer of eggs for the kids, but sadly no. I am just one very forgetful mum, these eggs are from last year I was having a clear out of on top of the closet and long and behold there they were. Thankful the kids didn't know how many they got as they got heaps so I put some away and dished they out over time. But I better go and remove them from sight before they come inside.
