Baby Pink

A friend had a baby girl recently...and my mom wanted a baby card to send them. I've been thinking about what I'd make for like the past week, but I'm seriously low on pinks...so it was kind of tough. I browsed the net for hours already -- and then I saw one I liked! So yeah, this card is a lift I did...but it's a sketch I'm holding on to. I love it!!!!


I love the layered look...although I've found from cards I made in the past that if the paper you use is all extra-thick, the card is bulky. And I don't like it! So, heads up!!! --  if you do a lot of layering -- try using paper that's not heavy. Or if you do use heavy paper, just make sure not all the paper layers you use are heavy.

TFL. :)

I've entered this card into a few challenges:
Cute Card Tuesday: Shades of One Colour (Pink)
Simon Says Challenge: A Card for a Child
Pollycraft Monday Challenge: Anything Goes

  1. Dollarama has new paper packs of cardstock. That cardstock is awesome. very light and its fun to layer cuz the card doesn't get top heavy. I love layers, so my cards tend to get heavy really easily, tho with those packs it doesn't!!
