Baby

Hello there my crafty friends!  Need a really easy, quick card for a new baby?  This one works a treat!  I started by taping the large Polka Dot Mask to a piece of coconut white card.  I started to ink through the mask on a diagonal using Distress Oxide inks using a small smoothie.  I used Fossilized Amber, then Spiced Marmalade, Worn LIpstick, Shaded Lilac and Peacock Feathers.  I cut the piece out with the Double Stitched Squares and double matted it.  Next I grabbed my Double Stitched Rectangles and cut two smaller ones and added them with mounting foam in the centre of the card.  I used the Baby word from the Newborn Sentiments set and cut it out of card colours that coordinated with the inks from the polka dot mask.  I glued them into place on the smaller mats.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  7 1/2" in size.  All for now. Sue x

Easy, simple and bright card to make but I don’t think I would do it for ‘baby’. I’m afraid I’m a traditionalist! I’m sure younger parents would like it though.

Hi Sue, I love this beautiful and vibrant CAS card. Although I still love the more traditional style this one really appeals to me. As others have said, just by changing the sentiment the idea could be adapted for other occasions.
