Well, today marks the beginning of Week 31 for Lentil (aka Baby Lam 2). How time is really flying! {whoosh, clock hands flying around like mad} Like monumentally flying! Before I know it, we will be a week away from Due Date and I wont have anything organised!! Argh {freak out!} What am I going to do with 2 children??!! I hope I can still steal some time away now and then to do some crafting!
At least having baby on my mind means I like to make Baby Cards too! LOL!Here are some recent Baby Cards I've made.
I do love Elephants, especially on baby things. So you will notice a little theme here! LOL! Lots of elephants!
This first card is a bit of a neutral baby card, perfect for a baby shower. And a good little chance to use up some of my button stash! I must use buttons more often, I have oodles!
More elephants! This big cutie is by Kaisercraft, and I made him a little Congratulations sign to hold, with the sentiment from Stampin Up. A wee bit of washi on the side of the card is sweet too {smiles}. And I have enough washi to go around the Earth 3 times, so every tiny piece helps to reduce my stash {giggles}.
This Whale is from Stampin Up's "Oh Whale" set which I absolutely love! The waves and little star fish are also from the same set, isn't it just so cute! There's that SU sentiment again too. I love the font of that Congratulations, so elegant, yet not too scrolly and formal. Just right!
Another whale card :) This Congratulations sentiment is also from Stampin Up. It's one of my most used stamps! I love the soft blues of these baby boy cards too, so sweet!
And a brighter Baby Boy card here, with robot background paper and the Geometric arrow stamp from Stampin Up's "Oh Hello" set (one of my current faves!) I also stamped the big oval chevron from the Oh Hello set, and punched out the big star with my SU punch. I love how the chevron star looks! It's so pretty! More washi in the background too. Yeah! Use it up!
One last boy card, this one is a bit softer, with shades of blue and yellow (and just a tad bit of light brown!) The boat and bike are from Stampin Up and I was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest for this one. I put a tiny pearl in the centre of the bike's wheel too, looks sweet! Have I also mentioned I have enough ribbon to wrap our whole house about 10 times? Yeah, I've really gotta use up my ribbon stash too!
And just to show I don't only make boy cards, here's a Baby Girl card! I love using the paper doilies on cards, and here I used a half one, some of my giant stash of ribbons, a few buttons from my massive collection and an elephant! It all came together so sweetly! Love this card.I hope you've had a chance to be creative this week too!
