Remembering the Fallen












This is an image from Cute as a Button and its called fallen soldier. You can find the shop and the image by clicking on the links above. I started out by painting the image. I used the Stitched Rectangle Die Set to cut the image, red and white cardstock. The Blue cardstock is 4 1/4 " x 5 1/2" The card is a tan card stock and it's 5" x  7". I added some embellishments I purchased from the local craft store.

May Inspiration by Judy


Hey everyone!
It's Judy here sharing my inspiration post for May.

I haven't made a baby card in a while and Francesca has
some great digis for a baby theme, so I chose to use
Baby Bear Buttons.


I gathered my materials.
I started by printing the image twice and coloring one of them.
I used a 12x12 piece of solid colored card stock,
circle and square cutting dies, an embossing folder and some ribbon.

The card stock was cut in half to create a 6x6 square card base.
I adhered a piece of white card stock.

I fussy cut the colored image.
I die cut the circles and embossed the white one.
The uncolored image was cut with a square die and matted.

I took the colored image and popped it on top of the uncolored die
and matted the embossed circle die cut.
The ribbon was adhered to a strip of colored card stock.

All the pieces were arranged and adhered to the card base.
I added the buttons and a bow to finish off.



I hope you'll check out this digi and all the other
