It's A Girl

Hello bloggers!  I started today's card by cutting the Square Aperture out of the pink striped paper from the Dots 'n Stripes Paper Pad.  I used the inner scalloped dies and lined up the cut aperture on a piece of white card, then taped the inner dies in place and cut the matching scalloped piece and glued the two together.  I added mounting foam to the back then added a white piece of card behind it.  Using the Baby Shadowbox dies, I filled the four apertures with a variety of cute baby things.  I used the It's A Girl sentiment in the lower corner.  I cut a multi-layered frame to go around the entire aperture using the Double Stitched Squares.  I cut a wide white frame as a bae, then added a thinner frame cut from the pink dotty paper that match the stripes.  I added the frame with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8"  x  8" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh wow this is gorgeous, all my children and grandchildren are grown up now but I am hopeful that I will have great grandchildren some day and what an amazing card this would be to give them, I have all the ingredients to make this, including the lovely papers, so I might just make one and put in my memory box.

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