Ingenious Inkling

Baby Baby

My baby card stash is depleted, so I put together a few clean and simple baby cards.

I started by stamping the onesie from Sugar Pea Designs twice on Lawn Fawn Ombre designer paper from the Rainbow Every After Petite Paper Pack.

For the first one, I added the little duckie to the Onesie and the Welcome sentiment on a Hero Arts Rounded Rectangle Infinity die cut.  I positioned the Onesie using foam tape and added some yellow bling to two more pieces of the Lawn Fawn designer paper.

 

 

For the second card I used the Elephant for the Onesie and a rainbow paper from the Lawn Fawn paper.

 

 

I added the same yellow bling & congratulations sentiment from the same Sugar Pea set.

Baby Baby

I needed to restock my baby cards, and I had a request for a purple baby girl card, so I decided to make two.

For the first one I used this week's Atlantic Hearts Sketch.  I started by spraying the background with Villainous Potion Distress Spritz & Fortune Teller Distress Mica Spray.

 

 

Next I found three purple designer papers for the sketch strips.  Next I stamped the Sugar Pea Designs Welcome Baby Onesie and Sentiment.  I finished with a wrap of Ito Gima Yarn and some purple iridescent sequins.

 

 

For the second card, I used this week's Just Add Ink Sketch.  This time I used the Onesie from My Favorite Things It's a Baby Die-namics.  I decorated them with dies from the same set and added tiny purple gems.

 

 

I used sentiment stamps from the Sugar Pea Designs Welcome Baby Stamps using a Love from Lizi Peel Off between the sentiment and background.  The finishing touch was a few more purple gems.

 

 

PS - she ended-up taking both cards because she couldn't decide which one she liked more.

Pooh Baby Shower

The newest challenge at Shopping Our Stash is Shower Me with Sunshine - shop your stash and make a Baby Shower or Wedding Shower Card.

 

 

I decided to use the Hero Arts Nesting Onesie that I used as a mask back in #gelprintJanuary2024 as the focal point for my Baby Shower Card.

 

 

I decorated my Onesie with Winnie the Pooh from Honey Bear Vol 2 from Ink Road Stamps that I stamped on golden Pooh cardstock and then a second time on red cardstock to paper piece his shirt.

 

 

I attached the onesie with foam tape to a Pooh golden cardstock card base and finished with a sentiment from Taylored Expressions Mini Strips - Baby.

Baby Baby

When I saw the newest Sketch Saturday Layout, I thought some little baby items would be perfect to feature.

I die cut the onesie, diaper & bib from My Favorite Things It's a Baby Die-namics using solid gelliarts prints & paired it with some confetti designer paper.  I punched a second smaller star from the navy print & layered it onto the die cut stars from the same My Favorite Things set.  

 

 

I paired it with a sentiment from My Favorite Things Itty Bitty Basics.

 

Greatest Joy

I needed another baby card, so I paired the Colors from the CAS Colours & Sketch Challenge with a layout from Try A Sketch on Tuesday.

 

 

Again, I used a green gelliarts print from my stash for the Garden Green.  I made a second print using Soft Sea Foam ink, which allowed me the ability to stamp on top of the ink with a vintage woodblock sentiment by Kathy Davis for Inkadinkado.  I added a Sea Foam Love from Lizi Peel Off Strip for a bit of visual interest for a Clean & Simple design.

 

 

I used the Hero Arts Nesting Onesie Die on a piece of Flirty Flamingo Marker colored and blended watercolor paper.  I topped it with some green epoxy heart stickers.

 

Woodblock Baby

It's time for another Woodblock Wednesday with Amy T.

 

I pulled out a Memory Box #woodblockstamp and paired it with dies from My Favorite Things - It's a Baby and Octagon STAX Die-namics.

 

 

I was asked for a Copper, Sage & Ivory color palette.  What do you do to have just the right colors ... use my gelliarts press to make my own metallic copper and sage papers.

 

 

Safari Baby Shower

Tonight I made a couple of Safari-themed baby shower cards.

The first one uses Echo Park Little Explorers papers with the layout from Tuesday Morning Sketches.

 

 

The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions Anytime Expressions & die cuts are Hero Arts Nesting Onesie and My Favorite Things It's a Baby Dienamics.

 

The next one uses Carta Bella Zoo Adventure Journaling Cards with My Favorite Things It's a Baby Dienamics.

 

Sentiment is My Favorite Things Itty Bitty Basics.

Rainbow Baby

When I saw the Sketch at AAA Cards Challenge with the Optional Challenge to make a baby card, I knew I had the perfect set to play with.

 

 

I used the tiny images from AlteNew's Little One in a baby rainbow palette.

 

 

I kept lots of white space and added the sentiment from the same set at the top.

At 613 Avenue Create it's an Anything Goes Challenge with an Optional Challenge of Clean & Simple.

 

An it's a One Layer Challenge at Challenge Up Your LIfe.

Monochromatic Baby

I'm still using my stamped backgrounds using the Simon Says Stamp Amazing set with the Quad of AlteNew Purple Inks.

 

 

I used a scrap of Gel Press Print and the Reverse Confetti Cute as a Baby Onesie for a quick card design.  Hopefully there's enough White Space for the Addicted to CAS Monochrome Challenge.

 

 

I'm also linking-up at the Simon Says Stamp no Pattern Paper Challenge.

With my painted Gel Press Print, I'm also joining the Simon Says: Paint It Challenge.

Cute as a Button

The July Reverse Confetti Stock Your Stash Challenge is Oh Baby!

 

 

I decided to use Reverse Confetti Cute as a Button (retired, which makes me sad because it's my absolute favorite go to baby card set) to create both a masculine and feminine baby card with the Sketch from The Paper Players.

 

 

For the sweet little boy card I used plaid paper from Reverse Confetti Winter Wonder Designer Paper Collection and a sentiment from Reverse Confetti Fancy Word Coordinates.

 

For the precious little girl card, I used some rubber duckie background paper with two of my favorite vibrant colors ... and another Reverse Confetti Fancy Word Coordinates sentiment.  I also added a trio of sparkly enamel dots.
