Precious baby Boy

 Hi bloggers!  To make this cute baby card, I selected a piece of blue striped paper from the Dots 'N Stripes Paper Pad.  I cut it to use as the bottom part of my background.  I used a piece of Sky Blue card for the top and added a thin black strip between the two pieces.  I cut the First Train die out of Cobalt blue card and added black wheels to the train engine and the open car.  I cut several red hearts from the decorative heart die and added them to the open car.  I cut the Mini Bunting Flags out of red and blue.  I stamped them with the word Baby using the Mini Bunting Alphabet stamp set.  I attached them to a piece of Baker's Twine, alternating the colours and I attached it above the train.  I added the Birthday Wordie saying between the bunting and the train.  At the bottom of the card, I cut the Precious Baby Boy and backed it with a white shadow backing.  I added it to the bottom of the card with mounting foam.  The card was completed with red, cobalt blue and white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8" x  8" in size.  All for now, Sue x

I love it Sue, really love this cute inspiration today, it's so precious, just so right for a cute little boy, I love the colours so deep and the composition (is that the correct word for a wonderful placement of design)? Whatever the word - and I have been up since 5 so excuse my lack of English knowledge lol this is a real hit, should be framed for the nursery wall in my opinion.
A good morning and love to all xxx

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, beautiful, cute, inspirational, fabulous, oh I could go on all day with the words to show how much I love this one, I don't have any small children or grandchildren (hoping one day) but I seem to have acquired all the baby related dies from you and they are all filed away in a specially marked box.....

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue. I really love this train, my brother and I had a toy train when we were little that this die could have been modeled on. Although this card is really cute, I can see the train being used on a Christmas card carrying lots of presents.
