Inkredible Stamping

I’m a little behind on my blogging for last week. So I’ll try to catch up this week!! 🙂 Last week I was working on a baby card for a shower gift. (For those of you who know Shellie from Stamp Camp she’s due in about a month) I’m am LOVING all the cute Onesie shaped cards I’ve been seeing online lately so I decided that was the perfect card idea! Is there anything in the world more adorable than little baby onsies?!?! Here’s a look at the card I made (Remember to click on the picture for a bigger photo)…

I used the stamp set Just Celebrate for the Elephant on the onesie. I created this card just from looking at some of the ideas posted online. Here’s how I made mine. I used a standard size card folded at the top. I punched about 1/2 a circle from the top center and about 3/4 of a circle from the bottom corners. I measured down about 1-1/2" from the top and cut in about 1/2" on each side. I used a ruler and my bone folder to score the card in a straight line from the end of the 1/2" cut to the bottom of the leg. Then cut with my scissors. I used the scallop circle punch w/the circle punched out of the middle to create the ruffles!

I love the idea of this card – The new Mommy can easily use the card front as a scrapbook page embelishment and I LOVE coming up with baby cards that will fit well into a scrapbook.

If you have any questions about how to re-create this card for yourself just drop me an e-mail.

Happy Stampin’

Update: Just before this post was scheduled to go out I got an e-mail from Crista, Shellie’s cousin. Shellie had her baby tonight – Shellie wanted to wait to find out if it was a boy or girl. So she got to meet her Suprise Baby Girl Sophie at 8:05 tonight!! Congrats to Shellie and Family!! Hopefully we’ll get to meet Sophie at her first Stamp Camp in a few months!!
