Welcome Baby - Card


Not often do I find myself making cards... in fact I almost never make cards. Probably because other than the occasional birthday, I don't often have a need to give cards. I also do not typically enjoy doing the same thing over and over, so the idea of making Christmas cards is low on my list of fun.

This all being said, I have purchased a few stamp sets that I fell in love with from CTMH that I haven't used because they do not fit onto any of my scrapbook pages. To me, some stamp sets are just made for cards, not scrapbooks. So, while I love these sets they sit unused in my collection. Today however, I was able to use one of my favorites because one of my friends' sister just had a baby! She had a boy but, since I was already in the card making frame of mind, I decided to make a girl version of the same card.

What I used (all CTMH unless otherwise stated):
-Nursery Bash stamp set
-Floral Tapestry Paper Pack
-Garden green and twilight ink
-Mauve Mist ink (SU!)
-Brown bag, sunflower, orchid bouquet, and crystal blue water color pencils
-Stickles
