Baby Suit

Hi Crafters,
Hope you are enjoying the Holiday Weekend and getting plenty of crafting done.
We have had another new arrival in our family and I'd like to share with you one of the cards that I made. I got the idea from that wonderful place - Pinterest. I drew my own template after seeing these three cards on Susanne Hansen's blog.

I cut the shape from plain cardstock and used the 'Up, Up and Away' papers by First Edition to make the top layer. Then I stamped the sentiments with a Clearly Besotted stamp set 'Baby Love' on to the banner and punched out the oval plaque with Stampin 'Up punches. The buttons and enamel dots are from my stash and the faux stitching was drawn using a green glaze pen by Sakura. I think it turned out really cute.

Scribble & Scrap - Anything Goes #19
TTCRD - Anything Goes

Bye for now but will be back tomorrow to show the other baby card I made for my Mum to give to the new parents.
