I made 30 baby boy thank you bibs for our DIL Karla. Our grandson is due in 3 weeks :-) This is our DS and DIL's 1st baby and such a thrill for us all. These bibs were so much fun using my largest (3 3/4" diameter) Nestibilities Scallop Circle Die and Big Shot. I am including the link to Patty Bennett's blog tutorial as that is where I got the idea to make a bib note card. Patty used the large SU Circle Die and I used my Nestibilities. The Wild About You Lion was stamped a 2nd time on W White CS with Pacific Pride Ink and then cutout and attached with dimensional tape. I added Sakura clear stardust pen to the lion and birdies for a little bling. I stamped inside with Bashful Blue ink so you could easily write over the stamping.
Enjoy and thank you Patty for the wonderful tutorial and inspiration.

Oh oh oh, these are just adorable. I love them. I had to chuckle, now you are in my neck of the woods making 30 cards. it is fun to have such a great purpose though and very satisfying to make them. TFS

Absolutely adorable! Lucky me ... I got to see them IRL, and they are super cute. It's no surprise to me that Karla requested more. Just think of all the smiles you'll create when her notes go out to family & friends !! Hugs to you, my friend, thanks for sharing.
