A close up ...
A little bit 'froo froo' for may taste, but baby cards just seem to need more 'stuff'. I used my Lil' Inker Designs stitched mats and stitched banner (love these) along with SU stamps, paper & ribbon, Recollections letters (for Welcome) and Cuttlebug embossing folder. The elephant was stamped and fussy cut and popped up using one layer of craft-a-board for the body and two layers for the ear.
This sketch has tons of possibilities, so get your crafty on and show us what you've got! Just click to link. Don't forget to check out what the rest of the DT has posted.
Happy crafting!
Oh, no, Geri, not too froo-froo!! It has, as usual, just the perfect layout and balance!! I predict another winner, at least to me. I have those mats and papers ... so lucky me, TFS!!
ReplyDeleteOoooh - just this week I got the stitched mats and flags and I love seeing them used - perfect baby card!!
ReplyDeleteThis just screams little baby girl!!!
ReplyDeleteFab embossing, and that little elephant is adorable!
Geri, this is such an adorable card! Love how you turned the sketch and the pattern papers you used make such a cute elephant. It's perfect.
ReplyDeleteCute-cute rather than froo-froo, Geri ... this is just a delight ... love that you used the pink and white colour palette, and then added such interest with the sweet patterns, embossing, banner and that final little ribbon tab ... simple and adorable! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteSweet, soft and pretty is more like it! It's just beautiful Geri. You've inspired me to give the sketch a try...I'm off to see what I can come up with!!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is just so sweet! I love all of the pink and that polka dot embossed background is so perfect for your sweet baby card.
ReplyDeleteIt's not to "froo froo" its just perfect for a newborn, thanks for sharing Dauphine, hope your having a great weekend, still snowing here Brrrr...
ReplyDeleteNo froo-froo here! There is however, lots and lots of gorgeous! So many elements, yet all fit perfectly together. The embossing is subtle, the layered flag, and the stitching, to name a few things, are perfect. I la-la-love this. Perfect for a new little girl. Hugs--Bev
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! The layered flags are something I've never seen before. You're a genius. That's all there is to it! :)
