Baby Pal On Board (Almost)!

Stampin up demonstrator order online blog punch baby card big shot one in a million rubber stamping
One of the members of my Stampin’ Pretty Pals is expecting a baby girl and today’s handmade card is headed her way.  Woo hoo!  We love our baby Pals.

STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:

  • Primrose Petals has become my “go to” pink.  I love the dusty softness and how luscious it looks with Very Vanilla.

  • It’s the little things.  My very favorite detail of this card is the pinking edge with paper-piercing.  The pinking edge was created using the Stampin’ Up! Finishing Touches Edgelits Dies and my Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine.
  • One in a Million Stamp set offers coordinating sentiments for the exterior and interior of the card.

  1. I love the new pink too – I think I used it on your pig card. What a great idea for a baby card – I don’t do gushy baby cards. Maybe this is due to fur babies instead of stampin baby pals! Love the pinking on the edge too. I loved the cards you made to show the new colors when they first aired. Is there is a tutorial on the box you made to hold the cards?

  33. What a pretty baby card. I love the primrose petals since so not a fan of the “baby pink” color for girls. You’re right, it does look very soft & pretty with the vanilla. I do love the pinking edgelit. I have bought that set, but haven’t pulled it out yet. Need to do a bit of playing with it, along with my new piercing mats. Thanks for the chance at the blog candy! You always have so many great ideas to share with us.

  43. HI Mary,
    Love this card. Love the colors too. Love your all your ideas, that is why I joined your team. With all the work with the piercing and my sewing, I would find a cute pink thread and stitch a back stitch in the piercing. I am trying to add the sewing with the SU tools to make them my own. Thanks again for all you do.

When I get to open that box sitting in my living room, I have that sizzlit and I think I will cheer my daughter up with this card. We have our 11th Baby Pal in our arms now, and the post-partum blues are singing in her ears. hugs, Celia
