Today I have a card that I made for my cousin who has recently become a grandparent for the 4th time. I thought the occasion deserved a card so I made this, it was nice and quick to do too.
The die is a nested doily so it has several sections. I used the outer section to cut off the edge of the card and mounted it on a bright yellow mat.
The little baby and sentiment are from a magazine free gift.
I used the die cut from the central doily as a stencil to do the decoration on the inset (blue) and the envelope (white).
I finished it off with a few tiny little gems that you can see on the close up.
I am sharing this at:

Hi Hilary,
ReplyDeleteyour card for your cousin is wonderful. I love the colors and the little stamp. The doily die is a beauty.
Great new baby card. [Bunny]
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Love that lace-y die cut.
ReplyDeleteWhat a superb card!! I love how you've moved the pretty die cut to the card's edge, and I love the combination of that pretty blue and yellow. But how did you ever manage those teeny-tiny gems on top?? Take my hat off to you for that!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a really effective way of using a die Hilary and the two colours work well.
