Happy Sunday.
It’s the fabulous Antipodean Jan’s turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it’s theme week. I went back to my clean and simple roots for this one. When I saw the theme I immediately thought baby. It was only long after I had made my card that I realized it didn’t have to be for a baby! But, it was too late, the card was made!
Here’s a sneak peek:
What you can’t see clearly is that the fleece of the little lamb is fluffy! I used some Simon Says Stamp white heat and fluff stuff that is such fun. I can’t wait to use it on Christmas cards!
Here’s Jan’s theme for this week:
To create my card I used a die called Peeking Lamb from Simon Says Stamp. I think it’s supposed to be an Easter stamp, but I couldn’t see any reason why I it wouldn’t work for a baby card! Of course, I absolutely had to use some pink and white gingham behind that little fluffy lamb!
The sentiment comes from an Echo Park Winnie the Pooh sentiment set, and I thought it was perfect for the card.
Here’s my full card:
Isn’t that cute? If you blow up the image a little I think you should be able to make out the strands of fluffy fleece. So, how many times can I get the words fluffy fleece into this post? I mean, who doesn’t like a fluffy fleece-y jumper!?
The design team have some fabulous inspiration for you. As always!
On a personal note:
I’ve been very quiet posting this week as I have been attending an onlinecardclasses classes called Brighter Days. It’s based around a set of products designed by Jennifer and Kristina specifically for this class. I can promise you that I have NEVER, EVER, EVER, in my whole entire life, done so much ink blending with stencils! The classes have been fabulous. Most of them more complicated that I would normally make, but even though my arthritic hands are certainly feeling it, I have thoroughly enjoyed this class. I’ll share some of the cards with you this coming week. Mind you, I still have another day of classes to finish and I haven’t even begun homework!
I’ll be back in a couple of days. In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.
Card recipe:
- Die: Peeking Lamb – Simon Says Stamp

Such a sweet fluffy fleecy lamb card, Jaydee! I love the pink gingham behind Lamb Chop and that greeting is perfect. I remember way, way back in the day there when I worked at a scrapbook store we had some type of product that would fluff up when you heated it, I remember helping ladies with it for scrapbook page classes. I miss the days when there were independent scrapbook stores everywhere. Hope you have a lovely week, friend!
This is so sweet!! I LOVE how you used that little lamb. The way you used it for a baby card is so fun.
Adorable card!! What a sweet little lamb & the sentiment is perfect!
I love your sweet fluffy fleece lamb! Her fluffy fleece makes quite the textural attraction that needs to be the focus on a sweet baby card. Don’cha just wanna squeeze her and her fluffy fleece – lol. Adorable!
What a perfect sentiment! So true. I love the wee lamb and that soft pink gingham in the background makes it all the more perfect. 🙂
This is truly adorable–the little lamb and the pink gingham work together so sweetly! Good for you taking classes—my brain starts to glaze over when I hear the word “CLASS”!!! But I am sure you’re learning LOTS and I can’t wait to see what you share!
I love that this sweet lamb does double-duty – she makes for a perfect baby card! I was excited to see the fluffiness (I had already zoomed in before requested 😉 ) soooo cute! Can’t wait to see the result of your online classes, although I fear it may be dangerous; I love Kristina’s products and you are a ‘bad’ influence – I took receipt of the first of two orders of pasta-related goodies this week already!!! Enjoy your crafty homework!
The lamb is just so lovely, especially with the fleece fluff and it pairs beautifully with that sweet, sweet sentiment. I have some of that heated fluff but haven’t tried it out. Thanks for the reminder and inspiration, Jaydee! I’ve taken classes with Jennifer and Kristina before. They’re always fun and full of great techniques. I hope you enjoyed the remainder of them!
What a sweet, sweet card, Jaydee! A fluffy little lamb and pink gingham are made for each other. The sentiment is the icing on the cake. What a perfect baby card!
Jaydee, this is the sweetest little lamb. I love his little face! The sentiment is the best. Teary eyed with this beauty! Just perfect for a little one! I am so happy you loved your online class. I can’t wait to see all the beautiful cards you created. Have a lovely, weekend, My Friend!
What a precious baby card. It’s also very feminine without being prissy. Thanks for visiting my blog and your kind comment.
