Teddy New Baby Card

 



I have made an A4 easel card. I was asked to make a new baby for Grandparents but they  also wanted the card to be for the Uncle who still lives at home. I have never done this before so it took a bit of thought. 

I matt and layered the top and base of the easel card with lilac card and gingham card from Anna Marie. I stamped the Craft Buddy teddy then die cut it with a Xcut scalloped circle die from a nesting set. I used the crystal art technique to complete the teddy. I added this design to a larger lilac scalloped circle before attaching to my card. I printed the personalised sentiments.  I added the open sentiment to the top of my card. I added a white and gingham strip of card with foam pads across the base of my card to act as a stopper. I die cut the sentiment in the centre with a nesting set from Crafters Companion and the other sentiments on the base were cut with die from a nesting set from The Works.
