Another baby girl card

Here is another card to welcome a baby girl. For this card, I stamped some bottles, booties, pins, and hearts using some Fiskas stamps onto some white card. I used a hot pink coloured ink from the versa range, and then used some clear embossing powder to make the images stand out more. I positioned the white card on some pale pink cardstock but placed a strip of hot pink card in between to create a bit of interest. Finally, I placed a message in the middle on the same hot pink card along with some punched out prams in the same pale pink cardstock.

Embossed birthday cards

 Two friends recently had birthdays and so this gave me the opportunity to use my new "Happy Birthday" stamp from "Stamp-it" (2420D 2004) as well as my new clear mini stamps 99011 "Special bird."

I stamped Happy Birthday twice on white card stock using some Royal Blue versa colour ink, then quickly sprinkled some clear embossing powder on top. I also stamped the Bird and a little cat from a Kaisercraft stamp in the same blue ink and embossed these also. Since I don't have a heat gun, I carefully held the paper above the toaster until the image was suitable embossed. This seemed to work very well (and is much cheaper than buying a heat gun!)

I mounted the stamped images and text on some shiny blue card stock. I also mounted some lovely Japanese paper that I purchased from Bellbird Paperarts in Blackburn on the same shiny blue card stock.

Finally, I adhered the pieces to some wheat card.
