My Favorite Things - February Release Countdown Day Two

 

Welcome to countdown Day 2 for the February 27th new release from My Favorite Things.  I have a baby card to share with you today and here are the products that I used to make this card:-

Happiness Comes In Very Small Packages Stamp & Die Duo

Grassy Edges Die-namics

I created a slimline panel of white cardstock and ink blended softly with Shaded Lilac and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks.  I splattered the background with Perfect Pearls loosened with a drop of water and adhered this panel to my card base.

I created to white grassy edges for the bottom of the card.  I stamped blooms from the stamp set and then adhered them to the card's background, the top layer was applied with foam tape.

The images from the new stamp set were stamped with Memento Ink in Rich Cocoa and I coloured with the following Copic marker combinations:-

BABY balloons - C3, C1, C0, C00, RV000, BV00

Clouds - C3, C1, C00, RV000

Bunnies - E31, W4l, W3, W1, W00, C3, C1, C00

Blushes - R22, R21, R00

Flowers in the Grass - RV00, BV000, BV0000

Images were die cut and applied with foam tape.

I highlighted the images with a white gel pen then stamped the sentiment on a strip and applied with foam tape and lastly I added clear sequins as pretty accents.

Spread Kindness - Purple Onion Designs

I have a CAS newborn baby card for you today using images from the Spread Kindness collection, illustrated by Stacey Yacula for Purple Onion Designs.



To create this simple card I stamped my images using Nuvo Hybrid Ink in Soft Suede by Tonic Studios.  I used Copic markers to colour the images and then I fussy cut them out carefully.


A panel of smooth white cardstock was ink blended with Distress Oxide Ink in Spun Sugar to create a soft focal point.   I backed the cart with one layer of dimensional foam tape and the blooms and sleeping mouse with 2 layers and assembled the scene against the focal point.




Again using the ink in Soft Suede I stamped my sentiment on a strip of cardstock and backed it with foam tape and applied it.  The panel was attached to a sturdy 110lb cover white cardstock base and I resisted all temptation to add any further embellishment since I wanted to go for utter simplicity. 



This card would work equally well for a baby in pale blues or where gender is unknown in mint greens and/or yellows or a mix of all of those shades would work nicely.



So glad you stopped by today, hope to see you next time - happy crafting!
