Sweet baby

I love how this card came out! My only regret is that I made it HUGE - 6x6, since I had just gotten some envelopes that size. However...I didn't take into account the fact that it should have been slightly smaller to allow it to fit INTO the envelope until I was all finished! So...it will just have to either have no envelope, or just slip in one of the clear sleeves (which it does fit in fortunately!)

I started off with the umbrella from New Arrival, and added a Peachy Keen face from the Princess face assortment. The background shape came from Lacey Labels, and cut a circle out of the center and ran it through the Cuttlebug. Added some stick on pearls, LOTS of faux stitching, a bit of inking to the umbrella, some ribbon, and a stamped sentiment from my stash. Oh yeah...also pop-dotted the umbrella and the sentiment from the background.



Thanks for looking - and have a great day!

  2. ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! I love everything about this card. Don't worry, my first card for a 6x6 envelope was 6x6 instead of slightly smaller to fit inside. This card would be perfect for hand deliver without an envelope!
