Just this
past week I have had two friends welcome baby girls into their lives.
So I just
had to make a gorgeous “Welcome Baby” greeting card for them, featuring a baby
elephant from the “Zoo Babies” stamp set.
The card
base is Crumb Cake, with Naturals White as the overlay.
The base
is stamped with the “Hardwood” stamp in “Sahara Sand”.
And “Sahara
Sand” is also used to sponge the Naturals White card-stock.
I used
the Masking Tape Technique for the sky in “Soft Sky”, and “Sahara Sand” for the
earth, along with the “Gorgeous Grunge” stamp set for the speckled dirt.
The
accent colour of “Strawberry Slush” is used to tie in with the little girl
theme.
The words
“Yippee-Skippee!” are from the “Yippee-Skippee!” stamp set, and “welcome, baby”
and “so glad you’re here!” are from the “Petite Pairs” stamp set
The ear
of the elephant is a ¾” circle of Strawberry Slush cardstock that has been crippled
8x to break down the cardstock fibres. The circle is then separated into 2 pieces,
folded in half and a tiny brad added to resemble a pierced ear/earring!
A Candy
Dot and Rhinestones anchor the corner of the card.
I just
love the {outgoing} Strawberry Slush Ruffle Trim which finished the card of
nicely.
And on the inside of the card ...
