My friend Abigail has just had a beautiful baby Girl...."Anwen". A new baby is a great excuse to get crafty and make a lovely personalised gift and card.
There is lots of wonderful inspiration on the web for collage frames....I set to work with a blank box frame this one was from "Wilkinsons" and armed with 2 square punches and the postage stamp punch created little framed squares. the stamped images came from Broadsheet Alphabet, Bundle of Love, Aviary and Little Additions (all available in our current catalogue). I also added buttons,brad, ribbon and itty bitty punched flowers to add to the 3d effect.
(the colours used were "Blushing Bride, Sahara Sand and Perfect Plum).
I wanted a really "girly" card for little Anwen. This Pretty in Pink card was mostly made with Punches - Tab,Mixed Bunch and Blossom petal punch were used to create the dress and I also ran the vellum through the vintage wallpaper embossing folder before punching out the largest petal. I heat embossed the bodice of the dress and added heat and stick powder followed by dazzling diamonds for an extra sparkly look. I added a punched tag with the sentiment from "little Additions" stamp set and finished the card off with matching ribbon.
(papers came from Delicate Doilies dsp).
Thanks for popping By x.
