Hello Baby

Hello there my crafty friends!  I started this adorable baby card by embossing a piece of white card with the Rainbow Hearts 3D embossing folder.   I cut the Noah's Ark out of tan card and added the roof scallops cut out of tan with a touch of Tea Dye ink on the scallops.  I added it to the card with foam.  I cut a variety of animals from both the Farm Animal die set and the Zoo Animal die set using pastel colours.  I added the animals all over the ark and sat the chicken on the roof.  Next I used the You Are My Sunshine set and cut the rainbow out of seven colours of pastel card.  I used one colour from each of them to put together the rainbow (I was able to make six more rainbows for other cards from the left over pieces, don't worry!) and added cloud at the ends of the rainbow side.   I used a pale blue pencil to add highlights to the clouds.   I glued the rainbow to the top of the card and cut the Hello Baby from the New Born Sentiments out of wisteria card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8" in size.  All for now, Sue x

  5. Good Morning Sue. Beautiful card this morning. A really lovely keepsake for such an important little person. And this could be made in advance of the birth as the colour are suitable for baby boy or girl. Beautiful work Sue. Thankyou
    TODAY we are are going to our favourite place on earth. We are going to Turkey for a month. So please forgive me if I miss posting on some days. The Wi-Fi is not brilliant... But I will post as often as I can. It is going to be so different as their laws are not the same as ours. They have strict measures about wearing of masks outside... And a heavy fine on the spot of you are seen not wearing one outside. Social distance is also in place and very strictly kept.
    Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them this morning.Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
    PLEASE STAY SAFE EVERYONE 🙏 🙏 🙏.
