If you already seen my NewBaby Girl Cookies post below this one, you’ll know that I became an Aunty at the weekend to the lovely Lucia Isabella. So this week’s card just had to be the card I made to celebrate her arrival into the world!
Card Recipe:
Stamp: QVC
Colouring Mediums: Memento Rich Cocoa, Promarker Pens
Paper & Card: Melissa Frances, Elegance Satin,
Tools: Spellbinders, Sizzlit, Grand Calibur
Embellishments: Lace, hand-made Pearl & Crystal Hat Pin, mulberry flowers, pearl swirls, baby shoe charm, ribbon charm, silky crush ribbon
This card shows that you do need to dig about in your long-not-used stash when a new occasion presents itself! As I don’t go in for much “cute” with my cards, I was struggling to find a stamp suitable for a new baby. However, I looked in my craft over-flow cupboard where I keep the stash that I no longer use and found a set of naïve stamps that I bought from QVC when I first started rubber stamping. Within was this cute teddy, just perfect for our new little star!
So I stamped image onto Joanna Sheen’s Elegance Satin cardstock using Memento ink in Rich Cocoa. This was coloured in with Promarkers and then I accented the image with glue pen , crystal glitter and rhinestones. I cut it out with Spellbinders basic circle and lightly coloured the debossed edge with pink to achieve a faux mat. This was then mounted onto Spellbinders Vintage Lace motif, from which I hung a little baby shoe charm.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
