Banner Banter Baby card using Stampin’ Up!

September 17, 2014 By Michelle Last

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.
baby-cards using Banner Banter from stampin upMy 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.

baby card using banners from Stampin UpI 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.

    Adorable 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!).

Interactive Mini Album I've been busy behind the Interactive Mini Album

I've been busy behind the scenes creating a special mini album for my team retreat this weekend. I can't wait to spend time with my wonderful team—being creative together, sharing lots of laughs and making this beautiful keepsake. If you've followed me for a while, you'll know I have a real love for mini albums. They're one of my favourite ways to preserve memories because they tell a story that's far bigger than a single scrapbook page....
