Baby

Hi crafters!  How's this for a fun baby card?  I started with a piece of coconut white card and covered it with a piece of sticky adhesive sheet.  Next I cut both the Farm Animals and some of the Zoo Animal die sets out of various cardstock colours.  I used seafoam green, coral, sky blue, bluebell, straw and wisteria card for all the animals.  I peeled the backing off of the sticky sheet and began laying down the different animals randomly across the card.  Once in place, I filled in the remaining adhesive areas with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.    I cut a white frame using the Double Stitched Circles and added mounting foam to it.  I embossed a piece of white card with the Quilted Hearts embossing folder and placed the frame over it and trimmed away the excess card.  I added it to the centre of the card.  I used the large Baby die from the Newborn Sentiments die set and cut it out of Bluebell, Sky blue and wisteria card.  I shadowed each of them then glued it to the centre of the frame.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  7 1/2"  in size.  All for now. Sue x

Hiya Sue. I can't wait to start using my new Ark and baby dies both an Easter gift from my nurse friend that I met here. I've had a couple of 30th and a 50th card orders to work on but my fingers have been literally itching to work with my new dies I just know they are going to be as cute as your first New Additions collection, the Baby sentiment dies are on 'my keepers' list near the top I hope lol.
So a new beginning and new hope for this Wednesday and it's beautiful. Stay safe Sue, thinking of you.

Hello Sue, beautiful card, mixture of cute animals with the dies. I should imagine the dies could be cut in thin fabric, attached to a backing and appliqued onto to fabric. Lovely project maybe. Stay safe everyone xx Carol

Hi Sue,
What a beautiful baby card.
I have bought the new animal sets and the Noah's Ark set so will give this one a go.
It would also suit older children as they could find and name the animals.
Thank you for the inspiration.
