Sparkly Baby Frame
Hi bloggers! An adorable baby frame card for today's video. I have done it in pinks but it looks great in colour choice you like! What a keepsake for any new Mother!
The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
Love this baby die as it is so easy to make a lovely Sue card. Thanks for the tutorial inspiration Sue, have a fabulous day. hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Morning Sue, this die is fabulous, and your card is brilliant, love the colour variation. This would look lovely framed and on the wall of the baby's room. Off to check out the video, and see how it was done. Have a great day everyone. Bx
Hi Sue. Another really beautiful useful die that is on my list of 'Needs' pinks, blues, creams and mint would all highlight the cute design and work that's gone into this sweet die. I'm hoping that one day cards made with this frame will be added to my market cards and I look forward to that day more than I can put into words. Off to watch the tutorial - again ☺ Enjoy your day xxx
I really like the tip of burnishing the back of the darker pink behind the letters to make them push through a little more. Would it work to put just that piece against the die and run it through the machine with the tan mat to emboss the letters, then put it behind the frame covered in glitterbitz?
Is spray adhesive really strong enough hold glitterbitz?
I think the card in the video looks much better than the card in the close-ups, which has the darker color peeping through all the apertures, not just the BABY letters.
Thinking how great this would look in green or yellow.
Good Morning Sue. Lovely card this morning Sue. Who can resist the wonderful smell of new born babies. And what parents could resist a beautiful keepsake like this. Your sample is lovely this morning . And can be adressed to both boys....girls and parents. Thankyou Sue for showing us your fantastic work. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards.
Hi Sue - such a delightful card and I love the two tone colours and a touch of sparkle. Thank you Sue for another great idea. Sending best wishes YvonneMayxx
