Baby Congrats

Good morning!  I had so much fun creating baby cards with Pretty Pink Posh's May Release.  The new products are absolutely darling and the timing of this release was perfect.  I have several friends who have just had or who will be having a baby in the next few months. It's a happy time for sure! 

I pulled out TONS of new products to create this card.  I started with the Layered Baby Wreath Stencil.  Aren't the images cute?  I really love this one.  I pulled out my beloved Concord & 9th inks in the following colors and got to work: Stardust, Eucalyptus, Aqua Sky, Juniper, Wheat, Nutmeg.

Next I die cut the Onesie Shaker Die twice and did a little trimming on the eucalyptus layer to make it more of a baseball tee style.  I repeatedly stamped "hello baby" from the Sentiment Strips: Occasions Stamp Set using Nutmeg ink and added a star from the Onesie Shaker Dies to finish my onesie.  

Next up was the Baby Rattle Shaker Dies.  I blended Juniper and Wheat inks on the rattle and then filled it with confetti using the tiny star dies included in the set. 

Next I added a little bottle from the Baby Mug Additions Dies as well as sentiment using the Congrats Shadow Dies. 

One final detail was the number block.  One of my favorite things about making cards is being able to customize them with little details that maybe even only I will notice.  This particular family is welcoming baby #4.  Hence the "4" on the block. 

 

To create the block I layered the "4" (from the previously released Graduation Mug Additions Dies) on top of the block in the Baby Mug Additions Dies.  Then I stacked those on top of one of the squares in the new Stacked Squares Dies . 

And here you have it!  I know that was a lot of writing telling how this was all put together, but I hope you enjoy the card as much as I do.  I hope you are headed into a happy weekend, friends!
