Baby Girl

I've made this card for a friend at work who has welcomed a beautiful addition to his family...


It was quite a simple card to make actually, once the shape was made, it was embossed then prettied up with die cuts, job done :)
So, I hand cut the card base from pink card stock using a circle punch and scissors, then embossed the front of the card with my argyle embossing folder.
The scalloped edges were made using the same circle punch followed by a SU scalloped circle punch, then using the scalloped edge punch (also by SU) for the bottom of the belly band and the ends of the arms.
The belly band uses a darker pink card stock which has been embossed with my swiss dots folder.
'baby' was die cut using a word die by Clearly Besotted Stamps, and 'GIRL' cut using Die-namics, By The Letter dies.
I added a small punched heart to finish the card.

I'm entering this card at:
2 Cute Ink - Baby theme
Simon Says Stamp (Weds) - clean & simple

Thanks for stopping by, enjoy the rest of your day xx

    Wow Jo, this baby girl card is stunning and very impressive that you cut the base card by hand, so neat and tidy you'd think it was die-cut! Beautiful detail too with the embossing, such a wonderful keepsake for the new family! Hope you're keeping well! :) Donna ♥ x
