Windy and Mimi, friend of ours, recently had a new grandson! It's always exciting to have a new baby!! This little fellow was named Johnny for Mimi's dad, the baby's great grandfather. That's really special to her! I wanted to make a cute card to send them to congratulate them on the news. Here is the card I came up with.
I had seen a cute stamp with a baby hanging from a tree, but couldn't find where to purchase the stamp. So I decided just make my own card using punch art,
The baby's "blanket swing" is made from the largest oval in the Ovals die. I ran it in both directions through my crimper, to give it some texture and folded it in half. I trimmed each corner to give it the curved shape. The baby's head is made using the 1-1/4" circle punch and the legs are punched from the Word Window punch. I free-hand cut the tree branch and clouds. The leaves on the tree are punched with Two-step Bird punch.The sentiment, "Welcome Baby" was stamped with the Something to Celebrate SS, a level 2 hostess in the Occasions mini.
I think Mimi and Windy will like this card! I hope so. What do you think?
Smiles, Laura
Your punch art is just fascinating me. Love your little bundle of boy, adorable.
