B for Baby
I simply adore baby cards. That just may be because of how much I adore babies. I guess that’s a good thing for a mother of five. 
We have quite a few babies waiting to be born to some friends at church. I’m super excited and am hoping that they’ll allow me a little baby “fix” now and then.

This is a fun card I created with some pink flannel fabric. You may remember it from this project. I just had to put it to use on a baby card. I just love the soft texture.
Quick Tip: Customize clear accents such as this Heidi Swapp Ghost Swap letter by stamping on them. I used white Stazon Ink and it’s a great look.

I also thought I’d share a few photos that I took last weekend. The swans were back, stopping for a week or so on their flight north. It was unbelievable…there were thousands of them! Next item on my wish list…a longer lens! It never ends, does it?!
And here’s the rascals last week with their treasures…
Have a simply wonderful day!
Beautiful soft baby pinks and love all the textures! Those swans are magnificent!
Oh whatta sweet baby card Julia!!! Love your photos…especially the ones with your rascals
Julia, this is so sweet! I love the texture! Baby cards are so much fun to make — thanks for the great inspiration!
The photos of the swans and your rascals are fantastic!
What a fun card. I love it with the pink flannel.
I bet that was a beautiful sight seeing all of the swans flying. I’ve never seen them in the wild like that.
What a simply sweet and fun baby card! OMGosh I love the pink flannel!!! (does my blog name give that away? LOL) I’ve always wanted to use fabric on a card and this has inspired me to just do it! Very sweet!!
First….the baby card is absolutely precious! Second…your photos are wonderful. I do have a 300mm lens, but I want a longer one. lol Once in a blue moon, swans stop by NE Oregon on their way to nesting areas….so beautiful. . Thanks for sharing these on your blog.
Gorgeous pictures Julia and your card is adorable!!
such a sweet baby card, love the softness the fabric gives and the stamping on the letter is a neat touch!
