Hi there! Sharing a couple of baby cards that I made recently.
It always amazes me how I can have 100 cards sitting here and never have the right one for the right occasion when I need it.
Kinda like when I go into my closet and have nothing to wear in a closet full of clothes.
Why am I like this? Please tell me I’m not alone.
This first one was a Pinterest inspired find which led to Etsy. I saw this one below and loved the clean, graphic look.
I also happen to be a child of the 80’s and loved Salt-N-Pepa’s Push It. If you know, you know.
I had these A Train Alpha Die Set near by and thought it was a good fit. These were included in a past Hero Arts kit, but you could easily use any alpha dies for this. I added a couple of clear dots for funsies.
This next baby card is less graphic, more storybook. I also love how both of these cards are not pink or blue.
This was a Betsy inspired card. Does anyone else stare at her cards and think, “how can I channel this kind of excellence?” Every single thing she makes is pure gold. I just loved the use of acetate. Is is the card or the photography or is it both? Either way I love every detail.
It is hard to make a totally clear card if you want to write a message so I popped this onto a capsule basic base with capsule filigree & diamond ribbon details with avocado and artichoke. The sentiment is from Folk Heart.
Yesterday I walked up and down the Target card isles taking photos of cards to remember my inspiration.
Does anyone else do this? Wanna see what I snapped to remember?
This one above kinda reminds me of my first card with the alpha dies. I think I just love the colorful letters and clean vibe of it. Also, the sentiment is fantastic. This could be done with alpha stamps or dies.
The one above is absolutely gorgeous and totally reminded me of Betsy. Love the woodland creatures and storybook look. I’m not even sure how to recreate this but I just like looking at it.
Lastly, how adorbs. I feel like, if you were brave enough, you could almost paint this? Are we brave enough? This is a great stamp set idea though.
Anyways, thanks for coming along on my baby card journey. Maybe we should do this again on another occasion topic?
Thanks so much for stopping by!
