Little Star

baby-card-for-jen2

Thank you for stopping by today!

I finished a baby shower card for my cousin’s daughter. There’s always a moment, when I’m making a card, that I think ‘There’s a Dollar Store half-a-mile away with a whole LOT of cards.’ But, I get through that moment and continue to work on the card. A little chocolate helps, too!

I cut out the baby buggy and the star with my Silhouette Cameo. I used the ‘Flourish Baby Buggy’ and ‘Little Star’ images from the Silhouette Design Store. I added a print background on the buggy, as well as a couple different sizes of faux pearls.

I used the Martha Stewart Deep Double Edger Punch-Doily Lace Trim-to cut out the strip that runs down the side, in the same print paper as the baby buggy. I added faux gemstones down the middle of the strip; on the ‘i’ in the Little Star; and also on the two corners (punched with the Martha Stewart Corner Punch-Swirling Lace).

Today I tried out the Sizzix Magnetic platform for the first time with my Big Shot. I loved it! I used a couple of Spellbinders Nestabilities dies to make frames on the inside of the card. It made cutting these frames so much easier, especially the sentiment frame. So worth the money, especially since I got it at Michael’s at 50% off!

The cardstock was Grassroots and Blue Shimmer.

~Have a blessed day!~
