New Baby card - Papertrey Ink

Hello everyone,

Blog-hop-logo

It is the day of  the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop and this is the inspiration photo that Nichole posted for us.
Blog hop inspiration

I am also following the 'A Cut Above ' on line card class and for Day 3 we were asked to make a shaped card so I decided to combine the two and took my colours of shades of pink and blue from the photo to make a new baby card.

I cut the card shape on my Silhouette Cameo and was inspired by Erin Lincoln to make the white frills using nestability scalloped and plain oval and circle dies. The giraffe was cut and stamped with Papertrey's Sweet Baby stamps and die, and the background strip was stamped with Background Basics Hearts


This is the first time I have used this cute stamp set and I loved the sweet giraffe. 



I added a gem for the eye and cut a tiny felt heart from one of the Love Lives Here dies. The sentiment was from Lily of the Valley and a Tiny Tag with a little bow around the neck finished it off.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the Hop.

Hugs
Carol x

Love it, Carol! This is such an adorable baby card. The giraffe - with the little gem eye and heart and ribbon with tag - is just perfect. Love the scallops around the neck and leg openings, too. Awesome job. ;-)
