As I noted on Wednesday, my niece had a baby girl on Tuesday. Hopefully, I’ll have photos for my Monday Memo post, but I thought I’d share the card I made for her as well as one I made for one of the refugees I work with at the refugee center who had a little boy last Friday.
The Papertrey Ink Make-it Mini Market kit, “Wee Folk” is turning out to be my go-to for baby cards. Both of these cards utilize parts of the kit.
I die cut the card from the “Don’t Forget to Write” Market Kit in Lovely Lady cardstock. The patterned paper is from Pebble’s “Lullaby” pack. I just love the papers in that 6X6 pad. The bunny and the “welcome” sentiment come from “Wee Folk,” and the die cut baby cut in Lovely Lady and Hibiscus Burst are from the “Wonderful Words: Baby” set—also Papertrey Ink.
The card for the little boy uses one of the kit’s patterned papers. They practically make the card all by themselves.
All I did was cut it out with a stitched rectangle die and mount it on an Ocean Tides card. I die cut a deer, popped it up with some dimensional tape, and added two enamel dots to the hearts to finish it off. I think I’ve made more baby cards in 2017 already than I did in the last two years combined. Lots of fun!
Pink, bunnies & floral paper – what’s not to like about this card. The deer card is quite dear & would welcome any little bundle of joy. I admire your very straight stitching on this card.
They will bring joy and be treasured, no doubt about it. Looking forward to baby pics!
Lots of fun, indeed! They are both delightful and I’m sure the moms will be totally at a loss for words. Thank you for making a card for a new refugee to the country. Such a caring act.
Cheers~
