Pion Design - New Baby

Hello Everyone!

I'm back again today with another example of how the Pion Design papers can be used all year round and not just for the holiday they were themed for. I have put together this New Baby card using papers from the Halloween collection - The Witching Hour, and the Christmas collection "Greetings From the North Pole".

The weather has been getting a little cooler, which I am very grateful for. I am one of those rare people who much prefers winter over summer, I hate being hot!! lol. Anyway, got a lovely sky shot not too long ago, sort of a dark gloomy day, but it was beautiful out all the same.


And out in The Shire, there are lots of friends posing for the camera. This first one I called "I'm so Happy" and it was my first photograph to ever be featured in an online gallery. Such an honour!!


"I'm telling you human, in a stare down, I win EVERY time!"


HENRY having a touch of salad...


BON JOVI looking as handsome as ever, eating his breakfast in the dew dropped covered grass.


My birds for today are this striking Starling and a beautiful Blue Jay trying to figure out if he can fit another peanut in his mouth!



Back on the home front, MR SCRUFF is foraging for the winter season and asking ever so politely for another handful of nuts.


PATRICIA sizes me up from the safety of the tree, as she often does before braving the trip to the balcony. Sweet thing, she makes me laugh!


And last but not least, my macro for the day is this mushroom pic. These were super tiny, less than an inch tall. Is it just me or do they look like they're covered in crystal glitter?


That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. If you have any questions or interesting tidbits about today's wildlife, please let me know.

  11. Gorgeous card Pamellia! Love the image and all the little details ... Gorgeous photos too especially your mushroom shot ... I took some in the middle of the year of one coming up in my garden ... I dare not post it as it looks very rude! Lol!

  12. Pamellia, I am a bit ashamed of you right now. Just plain "crystal glitter"? You are a crafter, you could have at least called it Diamond Dust or Wink of Stella or something like that. :-D

    Such a lovely card! It's so cool that you used holiday themed papers for this. Wonderful colours too!

Congrats on having one of your photos featured, so well deserved, - you are as much a magician with your camera as with your paper layers. All your photos are always stunning and today is no exception...

  35. Oh my my, that card is scrumptious! And using Halloween papers me less! Fab sky pic (saving that so I can try to paint. Is that ok?) love your squirrel family. They're so cute. Wow, what a stunning pic of some mushrooms! You are so talented using paper or camera! Hugs

  36. Beautiful design, Pamellia! (I thought I'd left a comment previously, but apparently there was an user error involved LOL) My favorite part is that little piece of white doily peeking through the torn edge. Fantastic way of repeating a shape! My next favorite part is that you used Halloween and Christmas paper for a baby card! LOL Strikes me as funny - BUT very clever! You would never know it by the lovely soft colors. Thanks for sharing what all your happy critter friends are up to, and the sweet inspiration of your masterpiece!
    hugs, de

  37. Love seeing the holiday papers used in "other" ways... that's SUPER inspiration. And your card is just lovely Pamellia.

    Each picture is wonderful. The first one definitely looks like your little friend is posing for a cover!!! Maybe he is - it would be the perfect photo! All your babies are precious and so sweet. And yes - crystal dust for sure on those shrooms!! j.

  44. Oh wow, more wonderful pics. I love seeing all the guys from The Shire and our friends from your balcony but at the moment it is your macro shots that are blowing me away, fantastic.

    I get so into all of the wonderful nature photography that I sometimes forget that I am here to see your latest creation. Stunning as always, could you get any more layers into that card, I think not and I love the floral arrangement.

  45. Beautiful baby card! I'm always amazed at how many different ways you find to use these lovely designer papers! Your layers are delightful, your flower spray with the wee little bottle and that gorgeous butterfly are the icing on the cake!

    As always, I love seeing your squirrels and the comments you put with each photo. They sure bring a smile to my face! Your sky shot is gorgeous, and I'm totally with you on being a "winter" person who also despises the hot weather! Why do I live in the south, you ask? Every day in the summer I think the same thing! But I also don't relish slipping on ice.

    Now these mushrooms and the dewdrops on the grass--simply breathtaking photos! I do enjoy your photos as much as your lovely artwork! Big hugs!

  46. I adore that sentence "new baby card using the Halloween papers!" That is totally intriguing and awesome sauce. Makes the mind go in every direction. Your card sure is a showstopper and full of layers and luscious details. How do you do it my dear friend. Love your pictures and I do see glitter on the mushrooms! Fantabulous! Hugz to you muffin! ~Doc
