Victorine Originals - Baby Congratulations

I'm finally getting around to posting this card that I made Saturday.  I've been wanting to use this sweet little stamp called sleeping baby from Victorine Originals for a little while now so I decided to ink it up.

I embossed both the juniper and white cardstock before placing the ribbon.  Abby picked out the nestabilities to have around the image and did the turning of the handle of my cuttlebug :)  (We were having some stamping time together).   I stamped Congratulations on the inside cause I didn't want to clutter of the front of it.

Supplies:
Image/Sentiment-Victorine Origianls
Cardstock - Close to My Heart
Ribbon - Stash
Ribbon slide - stash
Nestabilities
Cuttlebug

Victorine Originals - Eat Ham

This card has taken me two days to make.  I have been struggling with the crazy accordion flower and I can see that the stupid thing is coming apart again!  Does anyone have any good ideas how to keep those things together?

For this card I used two stamps from Victorine Originals...Turkey and eat ham.

Supplies:
Stamps-Victorine Original's
Paper-Piggy Tales
Cardstock/Ribbon-stash
Copics-E27, E29, E25, R24, Y17

Victorine Originals - Eyes of a Child

For today's card I combined two stamps from Victorine Originals.  The first one is Small open window and the second one is shooting star.  When I saw shooting star, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it.  Inside the card the saying is:  "If you can see the world through the eyes of a child, you will find true beauty".

If you hurry now, the store is having a huge sale--up to 60% off!!  Hurry now though cause it's not going to last long.

Victorine Originals - Any occasion card

Do you ever find that you need a card for something and you don't have the right one?  I do all the time, so I thought I'd make a card that could go for just about anything :)

I used Flower pot with birdhouse from Victorine Originals.  Instead of coloring in the flowers, I used my autumn shade/mix of flower soft.  I added some buttons and bling to give a little something but not too much and the DP is form Close to My Heart.  I have found though, that I really don't have any "fall" papers at all, so I guess I need to do some shopping LOL

Victorine Originals - Precious Moments

like these are so special and need to be cherished forever.   I made for no particular occasion so I left the sentiment off so that way I could customize it when needed (I tend to do this a lot).  The image used was Children Playing and can be found here in the Victorine Originals store.

Happy Halloween

Today is my first post for Victorine Originals.  When I got my package in the mail I couldn't wait to get home and start using them :)  There is something for every occasion and for any style that I'm sure you will be able to find something in the store :)

Today's card uses "Witch with Cauldron" and can be found here...the best part, if you hurry now you can get her for 50% off!!!  That's right for as low as $2.25 she could be yours!

I don't know what the papers because they were something I pull out of my scraps. :)
