Milestones for Stephen + commissioned card

Good morning Bloggers, I hope you are all well or getting there...hugs

A couple of milestones for Stephen this week, the first on Tuesday when they said he could have normal fluids instead of them being thickened with some horrible stuff, and the second was yesterday when they gave him normal food instead of everything being mashed up. He ate his chicken curry with real gusto :o) He is still saying only about 4 words, but hopefully the rest will come with time!

Anyhow, this card was commissioned by my very good friend Jean for her great-granddaughter and she loved it, thank goodness. It took me several days to make it between work and hospital visiting but I got there in the end!

White base card is from stash, folded to A5.

Papers and images are from an old FF CD.  I printed the stars onto linen card and then cut the 3 out on the Cricut using one of the fonts in SCAL (sorry, forgot which font I used!).

I stuck the negative inside and the positive I raised with sticky foam pads.

I cut the little bears out by hand, and what a fiddly job it was too, then raised them with sticky pads too. Sentiment is computer generated then punched with SU.

I hope that Jaylei liked it :o)

Commissioned card out of my comfort zone

Good morning everyone, I hope all is as well in your world as it is in mine!

As I said in the title, this is right out of my comfort zone but I am reasonably pleased with it. My friend asked me to make it for her great granddaughter and it had to have a big 2 and monkeys on it :o)

Here it is inside and out

The 2 was cut on the Cricut using SCAL and the monkeys, also cut on the Cricut, are from the Zoobaloo cartridge The paper is from a Forever friends CD. As you can see, I used the negative from the 2 inside. Oh, I forgot to say that the base card is pink Hammered from PMS, cut and folded to A5  :o)
