Welcome Baby Card

Hello and welcome!  Today I've got a baby card to share with you, as I thought the bunnies in the Garden of Hope collection were sweet enough to use in a baby card.


 Paper Rose Studio Supplies:  29458 Garden of Hope E 12x12 Paper, Layered Pinwheel Lace Border Metal Cutting Die 20973, All Occasions Sentiments A5 12pc Sentiment Sheets 22339 .

To create this card, I did some ink blending on the card front, using a light blue ink and just leaving little white areas for clouds. I fussy cut out the bunny and the flowers from the Garden of Hope papers.  Where there was white cardstock showing around the stems, I lightly ink blended some Catherine Pooler ink in Eucalyptus around the stems.  I glued the flowers down to the ink blended background, and popped the center flower bud on foam tape before adhering it.  

I die cut the Pinwheel border from white cardstock twice, and glued these together for dimension, using a spray glue.  I used the same Eucalyptus ink to colour a piece of white cardstock to put behind this border, as it helped disguise the fact that the flowers didn't quite reach the bottom. I glued all this in place at the bottom, and then popped the bunny up on foam tape and adhered him in place.  Finally, I used the same ink to make a mat for the sentiment and then glued it in place over the border.

Thank you for joining me today and I hope you're having a great day!
