Good morning! Sharon here with an adorable new baby card using the cute New Arrival Elephants stamp set.

It's a new year so what better than a new baby to snuggle! My card demonstrates how you don't need a lot of products to celebrate!



Supplies:

I began my card by stamping one of the adorable elephants on to stamping card using a grey ink. I used grey to add to the delicate look I was wanting.

I then made a mask by stamping the image on masking paper, fussy cutting it and laying it over my original stamped image.

Then I laid the stencil over the whole stamping card and inked through with the pink ink. 

Using Copic makers I colored the image sticking with lighter colors to keep the card looking delicate.

The sentiments are part of the same stamp set. They come as separate stamps so you can personalize them for boy or girl, baby or grand baby. Again I used the grey ink.


The card is then simple to build. I cut a piece of white letter sized cardstock in half lengthwise. Scored and folded this at 5.5in to give me a top folding A2 card base. 

The pattern papers in the spring is in the air are perfect for baby cards too! I cut a piece of the pink polkadot paper, grey cardstock and my card topper so I have 1/8thin border around each layer.

Finally I added a few ink enamel drops to draw eye to the sentiment.


I hope this has given you inspiration for your next new arrival make! Thank you for stopping by, please come back to see more inspiration from my team members!
