Welcome Baby
Hi readers! Happy Saturday to you! It’s getting closer and closer to Spring in the mid-west, and that makes me one very happy girl! Spring seems to inevitably bring lots of baby announcements and arrivals, so I thought that our guest Pamela Ho, made a brilliant choice for her card theme this month!
For a full supplies list and a brief description of the card concept, read on below!
Enjoy!
I wanted the stars to be metallic gold so I colored my white embossing paste with the Delicata gold pigment ink refill. I applied a generous layer of colored embossing paste onto the stencil for more texture and dimension as the background.
I colored and fussy cut the elephants from the Paper Smooches stamp set – A Little Lovin’. I didn’t have any gold thread so I took some sewing thread and colored it with the Delicata gold as well. The card was finished off with a sentiment from the same stamp set.

Thanks for reading today, and thanks to Pamela for being our guest!
