After putting in so many hours of putting together my niece’s baby shower, do you think I even thought about making her a card? Ah…nope! Once again, I was making a card as the family is heading out the door. LOL…so typical of me! Luckily, I had a few elements leftover. The image panel was the first one I stamped when I began the shower invitations. I quickly realized that it was way to much masking to have to mass produce 30 invitations. I set it aside for use on some later project…this one! hehe I quickly ran a Whisper White card base through the Big Shot with the Framed Tulips Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Then I ink distressed the raised frame with Pink Pirouette and the flat stamp from the Distressing Essentials Kit. I layered the image panel on a piece of Pink Pirouette card stock and placed them on the card base. The sentiment and the image is from the Baby Bundle stamp set. I colored the image in using a Blender Pen, classic inks and, on some images, markers. I threw a few words of wisdom inside the card, signed it, snapped a quick photo (sorry for the lousy lighting), stuffed it in the envelope and was out the door! Seriously…I should get it all together some day :)
Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you’ve been inspired to make a few baby cards…just to have on hand :) Have a great day!
Hugs,

Do you know, I don't have a single Baby card on hand myself!! Like you, it is normally a last minute thing as I dash out the door!! Lucky you already had the artwork done for this super cute card, eh?!!
