Baby

Hello crafters!  How about a tone on tone baby card!  It is all about the aqua for this card!  I selected a piece of decorative paper with tiny hearts on it from my craft stash as the background.  Next I cut a wide strip of white card and embossing it with the Heart Strings embossing folder.  I matted it with Ocean card and taped it to the lower part of the background.  I cut a large circle using the Double Stitched Circles out of aqua card.  I added it to the background and tucked part of it underneath the wide strip of embossed card.  I cut the Baby sentiment in white from the Newborn Sentiments and glued it inside the circle.  Next I cut two borders using the Delilah Edger set.  I added them above and below the embossed strip of card.  I cut the donkey, tiger, pig and rhino in aqua and added them with foam across the embossed strip.  These animals came from the Zoo Animals die set and  the Farm Animal die set.  I cut a larger piece of aqua card and ran double sided sticky tape around the edge.  I coated it with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz and added the background to it with foam.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  8 1/4" in size.  All for now,  Sue x

Hi Sue I love tone on tone there's something extra beautiful about it, its really cute on baby cards especially when you have the most ideal card/paper to use. I have a selection of your cute animals and your balloon dies on my table ready to cut for a first birthday card but I'm finding it to painful to use my left hand for heavy cutting plates, may have to get some cheap labour to help in the shape of my 'keeper'
Sending love to all that pop in today.
STAY SAFE BE SENSIBLE KEEP CARING xxx 💖

Hi Sue, another beautiful card. I have lots (stacks!) of decorative paper but they rarely seem to match up with the plain colour paper I have, so they remain in my stash or I use black. WakeyL

Hi Sue and everyone what a lovely tone on tone card today. I dont often see your cards using papers, so its a nice change. A quick yet pretty card.
Hope your hand is feeling better soon Steph. I keep thinking the same June, I love the little animals but not sure I would use them so much.
Hugs to everyone and stay safe y'all xx
