Oh Baby!



I know it has been forever since I have posted something and I am a bit behind on posting life events, so I thought I would just start somewhere and post this card I made for my Sister-in-law. My brother and his wife just had their first baby about 2 weeks ago. This baby was a miracle and we are so very happy he is here. I sent Andrea this card just before the baby was born.

The dress, hat and "baby" are cut out of a red cardstock that has a glimmer finish to it. I embossed the dress and hat and also the white shadow layer of the "B". There is bit of zig=zag around the "B" and I cut the purse and flowers out of red sparkle craft foam. The colors are non-traditional baby colors, but I know my sister-in-law likes these colors and they really are so classy/sassy together.

The card has five slots where I inserted 2 tags in each. Each tag had a motherhood quote on it. You can see them sticking out with white or black yarn attached. Most of the quotes came from President Hinckley.



Here's the inside.
