I had some wonderful news recently that a friend had twins and I wanted to make two extra special baby cards and I had a card to make using the sketch from Stamping&Blogging so I thought I would use the sketch to get started.
My friend had a little boy and a little girl so I wanted to give them both their own card. I love banners and the Banner Banter stamp set from Stampin’ Up! just makes it so easy to create hand stamped bunting/banners.
I hand stamped the heart background using the Chalk Lines stamp set from Stampin’ Up! and added the little bootee’s from the Something for Baby stamp set.
This is the inside of the card on the right but can you spot my mistake? I made a mistake twice, seriously TWICE!! I had to re-stamp the blue hearts background three times!! Here is my first mistake…………
And then as you can from the card above I stamped the wrong sentiment on the front! I am seriously blonde today!
And can you believe the mess I created whilst I was crafting?
So here is the sketch which got me started into mayhem….
Let’s go an see what the other design team members have made using the same sketch….
Sandi MacIver -USA
Amy Koenders – USA
Lee Conrey – USA
Claire Daly – Australia
Marine Wiplier – France
Shelagh Freemantle – Canada
Kerstin Kreis – Germany
Patrice Halliday – Larsen – New Zealand

September 17, 2014 at 2:32 pmAdorable cards – real keepsakes. I’m so glad I’m not the only one whose craft table ends up like your photo! I just get so excited about an idea I can’t stop and that’s the end result (except for the card!).
