Welcome Baby Boy

There's nothing as sweet as a newborn baby.  Whether it's a friend, a family member, a church member, neighbor or stranger; it's always FUN to make a sweet baby card to help someone welcome their new little one.  At Stamp Simply, you will find several amazing Baby Themed Stamps & Dies along with stamps, sentiments and dies for every occasion throughout the year that you can think of needing.  I love being able to pull out a baby card like this one when I need it.  And the expectant Mothers always love receiving a hand-made card.

I used a "wheaty" white paper (it has little grains and flecks in the paper - one of these little flecks showed up in the "crotch" area of the Onesie where the buttons are...lol) as my card base.  I layered that with a patterned paper from the Echo Park School Rules 6x6 Paper Pad.  I don't own the cute Echo Park It's a Boy 6x6 Paper Pad or I would have likely used that on my card.  Sometimes, we just have to make it work with what we have on hand; so instead, I used the Echo Park School Rules 6x6 Paper Pad and Echo Park Farmer's Market 6x6 Paper Pad for the background, the Onesie, Bib, Safety Pins, and all the little banners.

Using those papers listed above, I cut the small banners using the Fishtail Banner Dies.  The sentiment was stamped onto another banner cut with the Fishtail Banner Dies, and I used some Graphite Black Ink and the sweet Welcome Baby Stamp Set to stamp the sentiment.  The Onesie, Bib, Safety Pins, and Star were all cut using the darling Baby Basics Die Set.  There are so many paper pads, dies, stamps, stencils and wonderful products waiting for you at Stamp Simply.  We'd all love to have you stop by the Stamp Simply Blog for some inspiration, and the Stamp Simply Store for some fun shopping.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog.  There aren't adequate words to express how grateful I am for all of you who visit me and leave me comments.  It's been a long journey here on my blog, and now trends have turned more toward Instagram where I really struggle to grow.  If you'd be so kind as to FOLLOW my Instagram Page, I'd sure be grateful.  It's SO hard.  I'm always happy to do the same for you, my friends.  I get so much awesome inspiration from you all.  Thanks again for visiting, and happy crafting.

Blessings,

Karen
