Hello and thank you for viewing my latest card. I made this card for a friend's baby shower and used SU Feathered Friends (the baby stamp) set for the main image. Believe it or not, this is my first baby card ever! I don't have any baby type stamps because most of the people that I've made cards for in my circle of friends and relatives, have either teenagers or grown children! So, I guess, I'll have to buy some now.
Anyway, I wanted to try a shadow box type card (also my first), so I Prismacolored with mineral spirits the main image and framed the image with a pink mini-scalloped border cut with the old Fiskars shaper scissors. I added white gel dots for interest to parallel the Cuttlebugged white Swiss Dots embossed background. I finished it off with a pale yellow organza satin trimmed ribbon in a silver petite buckle slide.

Wow, is this ever precise and precious! Your execution is wonderfully outstanding; the cuddled bg and colors are adorable for a baby card. But, oh, I love that stamped clothesline filled with wonderful little creations! Fabulous card!
