Congratulations

Today I'm sharing a baby card. I'm a huge fan of gender neutral colors, how about you?

Let's start from the bottom and work up. The fun hero_product_link sku="CG687" text="Alphabet Soup Bold Prints"] is a great base for a baby card. I inked it up with hero_product_link sku="AF207" text="Butter Bar Shadow Ink"]. The hero_product_link sku="A6152" text="Little Turtle"] and hero_product_link sku="A6153" text="Little Hippo"] are so cute stamped in the ombre inks!

I love shaker cards and filled mine with yellow sequins. There are different ways of making shakers. This time I upcycled plastic packaging from a stamp set. I generally use heavy weight acetate but thought I would give the plastic wrap a try. It works but I much prefer acetate. I think shakers in general are a challenge to photograph, the plastic wrap is much more persnickety.

The hero_product_link sku="C6145" text="Congratulations"] sentiment has been stamped with hero_product_link sku="AF246" text="Mint Julep Shadow Ink"].

I couldn't help but sneak in some gold glitter card stock touches in my design. Nothing says baby like a shaker + glitter!

Have a terrific Wednesday!
