A Special Baby Card

My Aunty became a grandmother for the first time recently and I wanted to send her a special card.  I used the sketch from Techostamper and a stampset that I pre-ordered from the new Idea Book and Catalogue called Easy Events.

I used a base card of Bashful Blue and added a layer of Whisper White which I embossed using the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.  I stamped the “for baby” image onto Whisper White card using Black Stazon ink and used my circle scissors to cut it out.  I stamped the image using the same ink onto Bashful Blue, So Saffron and Wild Wasabi cardstock.  I cut the umbrella and the water from the Bashful Blue card, the duck body from the So Saffron card and the hat from the Wild Wasabi card and then attached the pieces over the image stamped onto the Whisper White card.  I punched a 2 3/8″ circle from Bashful Blue card and added it behind the image.  I punched a strip of Bashful Blue card using the Pinking Hearts Border punch, attached it to Whisper White card and then embossed it using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  I attached this to a Bashful Blue mat which also has the bottom edge punched using the Pinking Hearts Border.  I attached this to the card front using dimensionals and then attached the image over the top again using dimensionals.

You can see the paper piercing in this image.  I think I am going to love this stampset.

I’d love to hear what you think.

Bye for now, Kris.
