A great friend of mine is having her first baby, a girl, and I went to a shower for her on Saturday. I knew I wanted to create something special for her so I decided to use the Nature Walk Stamp set. I began with a Crumb Cake base that I ran through the Big Shot with the Vintage Wallpaper Impression Folder. I then sponged it a bit with some Soft Suede ink. I then added a layer of Botanical Gazette DSP in Early Espresso. Then for some softness I added the Pretty in Pink Satin Ribbon. Then a layer of Pink Pirouette card stock that is distress and sponged as well. Then I stamped the eggs and bird case on a piece of Very Vanilla and colored them in with aqua painters and ink (Pretty in Pink, Pink Pirouette, Soft Suede & Early Espresso). I cut out the bird to add a little more dimension and layered him on top with dimensionals. I then stamped my greeting from Teeny Tiny Wishes on Vanilla and punched it out with the Decorative Label punch. I love how you can make them different sizes. I attached it and then finished the whole thing off with a Vanilla button that has some linen thread run through it.
Gorgeous card Sherri! Could you give us a tutorial on how to make different shaped tags with the decorative label punch! I absolutely love the one you have here but not sure how you made it!
