Hello and welcome to the Stampin Friends Blog Hop, today our theme is "Life's Special Occasions". We will be sharing projects that celebrate the start of a new year of upcoming special occasions such as an anniversary, birthday, wedding, baby as examples.
I decided to use a bundle from the Annual Catalogue that I haven't used yet - I was missing a baby stamp set in my collection, had lots of ideas for All For Baby, but got side tracked with other projects - but not today!
I wanted a background for my item of baby clothing, and choose a design from the Abstract Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper, there were 2 reasons I was excited to purchase this DSP - it is already cut to 4" x 6" (10.2 x 15.2 cm) and that one side of the paper has an element gold shimmer.
I stamped the clothing image in Balmy Blue to coordinate with the DSP, then used Light Balmy Blue alcohol marker and a Colour Lifter to emphasise the overlapping panel on the jumpsuit.
I stamped the sentiment from Many Happenings in Mint Macaron, and also used the Messages Die to cut and create the sentiment banner.
Now for the inside of the card - it has a dual purpose...... a panel to write you well wishes that slides out and leaves a frame that a photo can be put in - how cool is that, a 2 for 1 project!
I hope you have enjoyed viewing my project, be sure to continue through the hop to see many more ideas that inspire you to get creating for an upcoming special occasion in your circle of family & friends.
