Floral Baby

Published by Julia Stainton at 2:03 pm under Card Designs

This card actually didn’t start off as a baby card but it turned out so sweet and I found this little tag that matched perfectly, so why not?! A fresh pretty card for a brand new springtime baby. This card is to welcome a beautiful new baby girl, Thalia Grace. Congratulations Nikko and Maggie!

This card was opened up and just the front inserted into the Cuttlebug folder. After embossing, I lightly painted the embossed areas with my aquapainter and inks. I cut a little slit in the top of the card to thread the ribbon through. I just LOVE this organdy ribbon….so fresh and like spring and pulled the ink colors from it for my color combo.

    I love how you used the bright colors on the embossed BG. I have seen a lot of subtle cards done with that EF but I love the bold colors! That ribbon rocks too!
