Hello Baby

Hello crafters!  It's time for another sweet baby card!  I started by cutting wide strips of card in powder pink, straw and baby blue.  I used the Heart Strings embossing folder to give each of the strips some pretty texture.  Next I cut three circle frames using the Double Stitched Circles die set.  I added mounting foam to the backs of each of the frames.  I cut each of the strips of card to a different length, then on a piece of white card, I glued the strips of embossed card from the top of the card in order of length.  I attached all of the frames to a white backing circle, then glued them at the ends of the embossed card.  From the Farm Animal die set, I cut the horse in pink, the cow in yellow and the donkey in blue and attached them into the coordinating circle frames.  I added the Hello Baby sentiment from the Newborn Sentiment die set.   I cut the Sweet Miracle sentiment from the Noah's Ark set and glued it to the top pf the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  8" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hiya Sue hiya blog friends. I think out of all the inspiration you share with us the baby samples have to be my favourite they are always so cute with the awwww factor sometimes out of the box but always beautiful Sue, this one is not different it's everything you want to welcome a new baby and everything you need to have wrapped in tissue as an everlasting keepsake. Enjoy your day wherever you are, whatever you're up to but STAY SAFE KEEP CARING KEEP CRAFTING 💕 xxx

Good Morning Sue and all.
Thank you for another lovely baby card.
I never did find out who sent me all of those little animals from both sets
I actually did put some of them on to a pretty card which was much appreciated.
They are all so appealing arn't they.
Have a good day all.
