Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Baby Blue

Hi Everybody,

A couple of days ago I showed you a baby card in pink that I had made for a friends new daughter.

Well here is the same type of card but this time in blue and I have done a video tutorial on how to make it....Spellbinders Grand  Labels 4 will show you how.

It makes a beautiful design that can be adapted for any occasion.

Just think how lovely this would be as a Wedding card with the Bride and Grooms names  on one of the panel along with the date.

The stand is from Joy Crafts ans there is a tutorial  Creating Card Stands   with a link directly to Ebay to buy them.

I have used Centura Pearl from  Crafters Companion  for the base page and embossed it.

The other card is from Inspirations  which is based in Preston.

I have used the same Baby Feet embossed card on this one and used it for the box lid too... and there is a video on   Making Boxes

The Corsage is made with  flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts  and it is a mixture of Roses, Tulips and  Cherry Blossoms and they have been sparkled with Glamour Dust.

And here is a real close up of the flowers.

After the video was completed I decided to add in the silver baby charm.

Just need a boy baby to send it too now !!

  18. Oh I wish I had those grand labels, I had them in my hand and just couldn't spend $75 or more dollars, eek! But I am regretting that decision now that I see what you are doing with them, I loved the pink one but the blue one really talks to me, maybe because I raised boys? mm? I love the box you created, beautiful!!! You are amazing and awesome.. Love everything you do. hugs

  19. You have ENABLED me again Christina!! Now I must have the Grand Labels 4 dies! My 2nd Grandson is expected in May and what a perfect idea this is! This card is stunning and would be a great addition to his baby book! I also have the book dies, but they are not the Grand size, but I could attach it to on a Card Creator die. Just beautiful!!! Thank you so much for sharing this amazing card. I am so in love with it! Hugs Lori

  22. The pink baby girl card is gorgeous but for once I think I prefer the blue 'boy' - very unsual for me as I'm normally a pink/purple fanatic! Must have something to do with just having boys in our family ha ha!

    Seriously both cards are absolutely stunning and a wonderful keepsake gift for the recipients.

  25. Hi Christina,
    I have followed you for over a year now and I must say you have expanded greatly. All you cards are gorgeous. When I try to copy and do the same things they are never as pretty as the ones you have done. I would be so honored to win something from your Blog. But do you mail to the United States?
