Sweet Little One SFYTT

I am slowly but surely catching up on all of the SFYTT that I have missed. This one is actually from October 30th, which I think I said the last one that I posted was from! Boy, was I behind! I had mentioned yesterday that I would probably be making a new baby card to match the other sewing projects that I have been working on and sure enough, I did! I just couldn't resist! When you have stamps as perfect as these, it is a must! I thought I was okay not having ALL of the dies to match this set, but after working with it yesterday, I have come to realize that I DO!!! LOL! I only have the #1 set, but I will be asking for the others for Christmas! I photographed the card on top of the bib, so that you could see my inspiration!




I combined quite a few sets for this card as well as a few Cuttlebug embossing folders. I started out by using the Polka Dot Parade paper and all of the coordinating cardstock. I really love the blue in the fabric, so I added that into the card design using ribbon and buttons. I followed the sketch to a cetain degree, but went ahead adding a few things here and there that weren't included on the original sketch. For the focal image I used Everyday Treats and the coordinating die. I also used one of the flower sets from Beautiful Blooms II. I included the link at the beginning of my post.


The sentiment is from "Holidays and Wishes" and circle image is from "Circle of Friendship" which are both reitred SU! sets. I am having fun using some of my older SU! sets that I had forgotten about. I actually donated a huge box of stamps to the local thrift store that I have had out in the garage. I hope that others are enjoying them now, too. I did end up by pulling a few out before I took them. They were ones that I had previously tried to sell at our garage sale a few years ago. I am so glad no one else bought them.


I added some of the same ric-rac that I used on the quilt to really tie things together. I am much more pleased with this card, than the one I made the other day. It will be the perfect finishing touch to all of the projects I have been working on. You can check them out here. Thanks for fluttering by!

Oh my goodness, have you just seen what PTI came out with today???? The banner sets with coordinating dies???I've been admiring your banners for some time now but would think too complicated, too time consuming to make my own. Can you just imagine how easy they'll be to make now?? Are you going to have to have the PTI dies/stamps now?
