Baby

Hi bloggers!  Here's a sweet baby card that I'd like to share with you today.  I started by cutting the Slimline Stitched Oval Aperture Trio in white.  Next, I cut all the animals in assorted shades of pastel card.  I used animals from the Farm Animal die set and the Zoo Animal die set.  I selected custard, soft salmon, wisteria and honeydew card to cut the animals and the bunting in.  I added mounting foam to the back of the aperture trio and added in embossed white background using the Bubble Burst embossing folder.  I arranged the animals in pairs and attached them to the oval apertures with foam.  I cut the word Baby from the bunting die in the Noah's Ark die set and glued it along the top of the card.  I added small hearts cut out of pink card in between the aperture openings.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 5"  x  9 1/2"  in size.   All for now, Sue x

Morniiiing everyone from a meek and mild Lancashire hope you're doing okay.
I'd put money on the craft table that there isn't one single friend here that isn't in love with your animal collection, I only need one more then I'll have the full collection thanks to my keeper and my nurse friend I actually found on the blog and at my local A&E dept where my chest infection went on the backburner and your dies took over the diagnosis lol dieaholic caused by Wilson syndrome and I've never recovered. Everyone that I've made cards for whether it be new baby, announcement or first birthday etc have fallen in love and it's so easy to melt and go gooey eyed over them lol. A beautiful keepsake for the memory box but in a frame on the nursery wall would be such a special gift.
Sending love to all that visit today xxx

Hi Sue. Love these dies that cut the perfect apertures out of the card leaving great spaces to insert your smaller die cuts meaning that they don't get lost on your creation.

Hello Sue and all
Love this gorgeous card, the animals were lovely in their original form but are so suited to the slimline format - just gorgeous.
Afraid I have missed a blog or two but have had the most amazing birthday weekend with my son and family, first time I have been to their home in Sydney for 15 months, it was just so lovely and I was just so spoilt.
Steph, that is a lovely offer, this is such a wonderful blog full of kind generous members with a very special interest in common
