Well, it seems everyone around me is having thier babies (AND EARLY!) I'm okay with it though, my time will come! Anyhow, my friend just had a baby girl so as part of her gift I wanted to make her some girlie thank you cards. I just love the Rich Razzleberry, Pale Plum and Certainly Celery combination so this is what I did:)
I did a quick video on this card for you but will include the recipe. A few of you have asked me how I get the bigger corners rounded as the SU corner rounder punch isn't this large. I actually use a 1 inch circle, place it on the corners and cut around it. Sometimes I like the smaller angle but other times I want a greater arc so this is how I accomplish it.
Here is the recipe for this card:
- Kraft Cardstock - 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2, 3/4 inch circle (three of these)
- Rich Razzleberry Carstock - 3 x 4 1/8, 1 inch circle (three of these)
- Pale Plum Cardstock - 2 7/8 x 4 (corner rounded)
- Certainly Celery Cardstock - 1 3/4 x 5 (corner rounded)
- Nursery Necessities Stamp Set
- Rich Razzleberry Ink
- Versamark
- Sherbet Buttons
- Linen Thread
- Whisper White Craft Ink
- 2 Way Glue and Dazzling Diamonds
- Rich Razzleberry Ribbon - 4 inches
- Small Star Punch
Here is a quick video for you:
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Take care,
Heather
Great quick baby card. I love that your cards are not the traditional pink and white baby girl cards. So much more interesting. You are so clever. Hang in there, it soon will be your time. Have a happy stamping day!
