Hello Baby - SUO #80

Its another gorgeous day in Melbourne after a chilly start of only 6 degrees it has turned out to be a warm and sunny 21!
Today's card is an opportunity to take a short break from Christmas cards and to join in with SUO Challenges and make a Baby card. I know of a few people expecting babies in the next week or so - so it is good timing! So this card is for a boy - 50% chance it will be needed :-)


The Baby Tees's wheel is inked in Marina Mist and then coloured with a blender pen and cut out individually. I wanted the Tees to look like they were on a washing line.
So used a neutral brad (retired) and some Island Indigo Bakers Twine to make the "line". The background DSP is first run through the Big Shot with the honeycomb EF and then lightly sanded to make the hexagons stand out a bit more.
The individual Hexagon is stamped with the Six Sided Sampler stamp set using the polka dot image and the greeting is from the Tiny Tags set and is cut out with the Bitty Banner Framelits.
And the inside of the card is just run over with the Baby Tees wheel too.

Card stock: Marina Mist, Whisper White
Designer Series Paper: Polka Dot Parade
Stamps: Baby Tee's Jumbo Wheel, Tiny Tags, Six Sided Sampler
Accessories: Big Shot, Honeycomb EF, Bitty Banner Framelits, Basic pearls, Organza Ribbon, Island Indigo Bakers Twine, Blender Pen, Hexagon Punch, Corner Rounder punch, Neutral Brads (retired)

Happy stamping until next time,

Jan

  1. Love your little clothesline of baby tees :-) The hexagon is the perfect accent behind your sentiment and Polks Dot DSP is a great choice for this card as well. Thanks for sharing with us at SUO Challenges!
