Happy Friday, peeps! I just couldn't wait to make a new baby card for my niece and nephew, to welcome their little "Maven Faye" to the world! Here she is:
I am trying to tell which one of the boys, Jameson or Sawyer, she looks like...I think it's too early to tell, but she definitely looks like one of them! Anyway, on to my card! My niece doesn't really go for the pastel pinks, lace and ribbons; as you can see, Maven's onesie has a definite organic feel to it! I opted for some pretty papers from Unity to make her a card using the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge sketch; I know it's not your typical baby girl card, but I hope she'll like it! Here's the sketch:
I covered my card with this pretty plaid and chose a floral print for the top, but I didn't want to cover up that gorgeous tulip, so I used it as my focal image, diecutting it with a Stylish Shapes square die. I used a smaller square die to cut coordinating squares. I offset the main panel a wee bit so that some of that pretty plaid could peek through:

ReplyDeleteBeautiful baby, beautiful name, beautiful papers, beautiful design...everything is beautiful in its own way :-) Have a blessed weekend.
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, I am so happy that these new moms aren't stuck in the 'pink' zone! Before I fell for your card, I was already admiring Mave's darling 'sack!'
ReplyDeleteYour card is going to be her favorite, Auntie LeAnne! and I might just have to have some of that tulip paper myself!
