Something For Baby

Linda Vich Creates: Something For Baby. A baby onesie adorns a cable knit embossed card front, with matching bib, booties, and sentiment inside the card.
One of my daughter's friends was having a baby shower so she asked if I would make a card. Of course I said yes!

For this card, I used both old and new products. I started by cutting a standard card base from Sweet Sugarplum. I cut a matte from Thick Whisper White to exactly fit the top of the card and embossed it using the Cable Knit Embossing Folder.

Using stamps from the Something For Baby stamp set, I stamped a onesie, a bib, and two booties with Sweet Sugarplum on Thick Whisper White. I die cut these with the coordinating Baby's First Framelits. I also die cut a hanger from Silver Foil paper.

I tied a bow around the embossed matte using some glittery sheer ribbon that I had on hand. The matte was then adhered to the card front using Fast Fuse.

Glue Dots were used to adhere the onesie to the hanger and then adhered it to the card front using Dimensionals. I added three small pearls to the front of the onesie.

I cut a matte from Whisper White for the inside of the card. I stamped the sentiment from the now retired Baby Bundle stamp set and then adhered the matte using Fast Fuse. I used Dimensionals to adhere both the bib and the two booties inside the card. Though it is not shown in the photos, I stamped the baby carriage from the stamp set on the envelope.

I wasn't totally pleased with this card but Courtney's friend loved it!
