New Baby Card - It's A Boy!

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you all have a crafty day ahead.

Lots of my friends are having babies or expecting lately, so I thought I'd make some quick and simple cards to get ready for the new arrivals!

Sizzix are kind enough to give us free downloadable papers, so I started with these New Baby papers and printed onto white card stock on my home printer. Of course there are girl papers available too.

Supplies needed:

• Sizzix Big Shot Plus Starter Kit
• Sizzix Thinlits Speech Bubble Dies - 660801
• A4 Embossing folders (in starter kit)
• White card stock
• Alphabet stamps and ink
• Foam pads
• Glue stick
• Corner Punch
• Confetti!

I love the A4 embossing folders! I firstly cut two speech bubbles using the thinlits dies and then embossed them to give a textured effect. I used foam pads to attach them to the front of the card.

I used some alphabet stamps on the front of the card, but also on the inside for a congratulations message. I also added some star confetti - I love putting a little sprinkle inside the card!

So.....do we think the Royal Baby will be a boy?!!

I hope you liked this quick make today - happy crafting!
