My niece and her husband recently announced that they are expecting baby #2. Therefore, it was time for Great Aunt Mary (that title always makes me feel like I'm 100--LOL) to whip up a baby card to celebrate. The sentiment, "10 tiny fingers & 10 tiny toes," is perfect for the occasion! Stampin' Up! punches make the "wow" effect quick and easy.
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
- Stampin' Up! Nursery Nest Designer Series Paper offers charming patterns to mix and match. Rounding opposing corners on each square softens the look.
- The Clear Bitty Buttons were adhered with Mini Glue Dots. I layered the Jewels Basic Pearls on top for a soft accent and to minimize any signs of the glue dot below the button.
- Adding the coordinating bird pattern (also Nursery Nest DSP) to the envelope flap makes the arrival of this card in the mail even more of a stand out!
SPEAKING OF BABY CARD IDEAS . . . my new on-line "Welcome Baby" class will be available Dec. 2. Stay tuned for details.
