Baby Girl Card

I love making baby cards, but I seem to get asked to make more boy ones than girl ones! lol. :(  I do love a girly card as you can bling them up with diamontes and glitter! 

So, after hearing that recently some friends welcomed their baby girl into the world, I couldn't wait to get started on making this for them...

Bundle of Love - Baby Boy

Morning all,

I hope you've been enjoying the Make A Monster cards I've been uploading recently :) I wanted to upload a girl version today, but unfortunately I haven't taken a photo of it yet and as it's quite dark outside, I'll have to take a picture of it later today in natural daylight to upload tomorrow ;)

In the meantime, here's a card that I made at Wednesday's Evening Session that I copied from my original Stampin' Up! Class at the beginninng of October (which seems like forever ago). Just changed the colour from the original baby girl card to Bashful Blue so that it would be suitable for a baby boy and stamped and heat embossed white rattles in the background instead of the hearts. Hope you like:

Hi all,

Hope you're having a good Tuesday and you're snuggled up inside now. I can't believe how dark it is outside, the nights are sure getting darker earlier :(

I also showcased some more cards using this stamp set recently at my Open House Afternoon for the launch of the new Idea Book & Catalogue so I thought I'd share with you a card that I made earlier ;) Enjoy!
