I can’t believe we kept this under out hats all week but one of the designers on the Lindsay’s Stamp Stuff team is having a baby today! We are having a surprise virtual baby shower for Tamara who is expecting her new baby boy tonight! If you want to wish her well you can leave a comment of support on her blog Scrapcation Getaway. We love you Tamara, and wish you the best! Here is the card I made for the second time momma, I used Babies and bows, Baby Bingo card freebie and the new Sweet Stitches paper pack. The text frame around the baby shoe is today’s freebie.
I used the sketch at Mojo Monday to layout this card, it was easy to use the sketch and digi-paper. I cut a circle from the brown polkadot paper using the circle selection tool and pasted it in a new document, then layered the bingo card over it (I cropped out the one I wanted from the sheet) and added a drop shadow. I printed a strip of the yellow plaid and a scallop circle of the large blue dot and layered a white scallop over that and added my frame and shoe stamp. Then I cut the 3 pieces out and layered them on a 6″ circle card, stitched on a few buttons and added some homemade crinkle ribbon. Want to make your own crinkle ribbon? Here is a video, I used 100% Rayon Hug Snug seam binding from Sew True and colored it with my homemade ink sprays:
This card qualifies for the following challenges: Mojo Monday (sketch), Crafty Emmas Store (anything goes), Corrosive Challenges (masculine card), Die Cut Dreams (soft shades of vintage), In Style (baby, blue/white), Lily of the Vally (circles), My Sherri Crafts (babies)and Practical Scrappers (white pen)
I colored the baby shoe with my Copics and added highlights with a white pen, I see this technique a lot and love the look, this is my first attempt at it, me likey!
The “Sweet Little Baby” text frame is your freebie, download it here.
