Little Sunshine

This gorgeous new baby card by Rachel was created with our DAISY GRUNGE and HEDGEHOG HUGS stamp sets and more!

[Tutorial] I’ve brought out the summer brights for a little ‘new arrival’ card. I do like making baby cards that are a bit different and Visible Image stamps are just fab for such a special occasion. For this make I’ve used ‘Daisy Grunge’, ‘Hedgehog Hugs’ and the ‘Sketched Tulips’ stamp sets alongside the ‘Daisy Daisy’ and ‘Bubbles & Fizz’ stencils.

To begin with I sprayed a piece of white card with ‘Tumbled Glass’, ‘Salvaged Patina’ and ‘Peacock Feathers’ distress spray stain. I then trimmed the card and used ‘Snowflake’ Paperartsy Fresco paint through the ‘Daisy Daisy’ stencil. Once the paint was dry I stamped the script stamp from the ‘Sketched Tulips’ set using Versafine Clair ‘Warm Breeze’ blue ink (2nd generation) over some parts of the background. I then added some bubbles in ‘Salvaged Patina’ distress ink using the ‘Bubbles & Fizz’ stencil over the top before blending the same ink around the edges of the card.

On another piece of white card I stamped the large daisy from the ‘Daisy Grunge’ and a hedgehog from the ‘Hedgehog Hugs’ set in Versafine Clair ‘Nocturne’ black ink before heat embossing with Wow Clear Gloss Super Fine embossing powder. The daisy was coloured in using ‘Worn Lipstick’, ‘Saltwater Taffy’ and ‘Squeezed Lemonade’ distress ink whilst I used Stabilo Aquacolor watercolour pencils for the hedgehog. For the sentiment this was also heat embossed using Wow bright white opaque embossing powder.

The background was then mounted onto black card and white card blank using acrylic glue before adding all the other elements using 3D mounts. A lovely little card to welcome a little one, I hope you agree. Rachel ♡
