Couple of makes.

Hi, hope you are all well and those with kids not too stressed out with the school holidays!!! They boys have been at sports camp this week, so have been able to do a bit of pottering around with cards:

I received this image a while ago from Sarah over at Rainmacs place and finally got round to using it (thank you Sarah)- I have kept it quite plain and not gone mad adding embellishments/ribbons etc and would like to enter it into the:
Just Cute Bears challenge - Bare necessity
Creative Inspiration - Animals

I also had a play with new Elzybells stamps that I have recently bought - a couple of friends/family are expecting so wanted to try something a little different (although will need to go back and do one in blue!!):
Flat:



Standing:

I have die cut the scalloped circle from the card blank then added Smirk papers to the inside and tied ribbon from stash & added card candy. I stamped the image and coloured with promarkers and then covered the back with pink card and hung with a small piece of cotton. Sorry for the poor photo it doesnt show the lovely sentiment of " A baby is a tiny piece of heaven" which I have stamped in pink at the bottom.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Cowgirls Sunday - Anything goes
Allsorts Challenge- baby/child
Totally Gorjuss - Congratulations.

Thanks for looking x
