Hi bloggers! Today's offering is one for the new Mom's out there! I started with a piece of decorative paper from my stash for the background. I cut a multi layered frame using the Double Stitched Rectangles out of blush card and coconut white card. I added the frame with mounting foam. Next I cut the rattle in blush card and backed it with blue dusk card and cut the centre of the handle out. I added a small round treat cup that I had filled with Iced Flake and white micro beads. I sealed it with acetate and glued it into place in the rattle. I glued the rattle diagonally into the frame. I cut the sentiment in blush card and glued it to the upper corner. I used the border from the set and created a blush bow that I attached to the bottom centre of the frame. The card was completed with white, blush and blue dusk mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Good Morning Sue and all
Such a lovely card this morning and I am sure the new mum would treasure a card like this one. I love the details on paper piecing on the rattle and your idea with the bow.
Crafty hugs and well wishes to all.... Wendy
What a precious sample you've given us today, quite adorable Sue. Everything is just gorgeous from your stash to that incredible paper bow you've created, how clever and what a great idea. Cardstock, treat cups and your beautiful inspiration all I need and want now is the die, and I want that sooo bad lol.
Hope your day is a nice day. Hugs xxx
Good morning Sue,

Hi Sue,
A sweet card for a new mum and baby.
Thanks for sharing,
Heather
Good morning Sue Oh what an adorable card the rattle shaker is so cute A lovely keepsake for new parents
Hello Sue
That's what I love about your dies they make spectacular cards. Yesterday I had to make an 18th birthday card in a hurry(my mum always reminded of impending birthdays) I used the cocktail glasses and it took me 3/4 hour so thank you Sue much quicker than going to the shops and just think of the money saved.Now what die is next on my list?
This is so cute, Sue.

Sweet baby card any new mum would be happy to have. I wouldn't chose the stereotypical blue and pink for babys' cards though.
Teresa
Morning Sue,

Hi Sue, Very pretty. love Jean Z xxxx
Truly gorgeous A wonderful keepsake
Wish I knew someone who was pregnant just so I could make this card.Its beautiful.
Good Morning Sue A lovely Baby card. The rattle is really lovely and all the better being a shaker card as well. This will fit nicely into some young mums memory box. A keepsake to look back on for many years. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
Good morning Sue,
Such a sweet card today & one that any new parents or grandparents would definitely keep. Yvonne xx
Hi Sue,
What a sweet shaker card and I just love that improvised bow!...you really do think outside the box...lol
Izzy
GM Sue. Cute card
Really like that sentiment, and the bow is so clever. I'd probably do it in yellow snd green. A rattle is about the most literal reason to make a shaker card.
Best to all,
Donita
So sweet Sue, love the rattle and your sentiments are great x
Really cute card Sue.

So sweet & would look lovely in a frame in the nursery room. Thanks Sue x

Hi Sue, a very cute baby card. Your rattle is great and the bow is so different made with the border die cut.
Such a sweet baby card :))
I love the possibility to make the rattle into a shaker card.
Beautiful - any new mum would love to receive this. Thank you, Sue
Hello Sie and all
Very cute and clever shaker card and a real keepsake. Love the border bow
Hugs
Muriel x
Hi Sue, who doesn't like a shaker card and I am sure any new parent would love this one. I think the bow made from a border is very clever but as it is hanging off the edge it would be difficult to post without spoiling it, probably one for a hand delivery only.
Frances
Hi Sue
Working nights last night so only just got up! What a sweet card that any parent would be thrilled to receive and will keep forever!
Hugs x

Hi Sue

Such a cute new baby shaker card just perfect to go in a Baby Keepsake Box.
I love the colour scheme of Blush, Coconut White and Blue Dusk, they go so well together!
Lesley S x
Hi Sue. Love the design of the card, but not too sure about the colour combination of blue and blush. Having said that, it might have just come across a bit odd on the laptop screen.
