Welcome New Baby

Hi there.  I hope you're doing well and having lots of craft time!


Not long ago one of my girls wanted to know if I had some baby cards.

We couldn't find any. Gasp!

I have one now.

This Penny Black pup was stamped and colored with watercolor pencils.
His balloons are cut from some snippets of Inka Gold Smoosh.  I used some for 
the larger circle too.  The balloon strings are hand drawn. 

A little dry embossing and a loopy sentiment and I have a baby card.

I'll take this to....

'Anything Goes'
or
'Something New'
(New Year, New Home, New Baby, New Job, New Stash...)

Enjoy!

Bonnie, such an adorable baby card. Looks like I have missed quite a few of your posts. Your twofer cards are so cute and fun. What a cute stamp. Hope all is going well with you.

This is such an outstanding baby card design and I love that it could be used for either boy or girl. I would have sworn those balloons were heat embossed and just love that sentiment.

This is such a cute card and since I am in the age bracket where friends are becoming first time grandparent, good to have a couple of cards for that in my stash. Love the balloons from Inkas and that you hand drew the strings.

Some cards we tend not to have on hand and rather make them when needed, baby cards are like that. lol This one is adorable Bonnie! I love that cute little puppy with his balloons, the embossed hearts just make this card even sweeter as well. Hugs, Brenda

What a sweet card, Bonnie. Adding balloons to that cute little pup was such a great idea and the heart embossing is the frosting on the cake.

What a cutie, this puppy just gives me the look of love. Your balloons are the perfect gift for the newcomer. The dry embossed hearts just add to the affection we have for the new arrival. Adorable xx
