Let’s Make Some New Baby Cards!

Hey everybody! I hope you had a great weekend – Monday sure got here fast! Leslie here, sharing a couple new baby cards featuring our Basis cardstock paired with several cardstock colors in the Pop Tone line! Pop Tone cardstock is among my all-time favorites because of the variety of colors, and it’s great for layering or card bases! I used Basis Natural; Pop Tone Black Licorice, Sweet Tooth, Cotton Candy, and Limeade; and Bright Silver Foil for these cards.

Cut Card Bases and Layers

I cut everything in duplicate:
1. Card base and baby parts (lol) from Basis Natural
2. Mouth from Pop Tone Black Licorice
3. Tooth, diaper and inside panel from Pop Tone Sweet Tooth
4. Diaper pin head from Pop Tone Cotton Candy (for the girl) and Pop Tone Limeade (for the boy)
5. Diaper pin wire from Bright Silver Foil.

The coordinating envelopes were cut from patterned paper in my stash.

Ink Layers and Assemble Cards/Envelopes

I inked the edges of the baby parts with antique linen distress ink for a little definition. Similarly, I inked the cheeks with tattered rose distress ink. Next, I assembled the cards and the envelopes.

Stamp Sentiments and Complete Project

I stamped the sentiments in black ink on the front and inside panel of each card, and then adhered the inside panels, which completed the project.
