Musical notes and Snippets celebration

Morning Peeps, it's mid month inspiration time at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations where our themes are CAS and Romance along with the usual A/G options.

For my card above which I hope is CAS(ish) I used Lavinia Basil and Bibi, Musical Notes and Glory stencil simply stamped in black over a stencilled base.

It's the 500th challenge over at the Snippets Playground and Misses and Di and Sarn are marking the milestone with a special challenge and the mandatory theme of Celebration and it's a must to include a photo of your snippets. My celebration is a new baby, in this case a new Great Granddaughter due any day now to Granddaughter Azaria. 

All stamps are Lavinia, the little boat is Liberty, the flowers Bell Flower, masked to stamp about three quarters and masked again to extend the branch around the circle and more flowers paper pieced here and there using Mini Bell Flower. I also stamped the buttons again and paper pieced to add some dimension. A die cut Baby word and finito. It was suggested I enter this into the Beautiful Blossoms challenge, so thought I would do just that!

 Below a photo of my snippets. 

My romance share is one I made for a crafty friends 50th Wedding Anniversary before Christmas but not blogged so thought it fitted the bill. It uses AALL and Create Elongated Hearts (156) and Shadowed Heart (896) and a pretty old sentiment which I think is from Clarity. The heart and sentiment are embossed with detail gold EP and die cut numbers.

Have a good Tuesday one and all.
