Bitty Baby Blessings Gift Set

Here is the set of 8 note cards I made for my daughters 1st grade teacher as a baby gift. I had SO much FUN making these cards! (Thanks Elisabeth for letting me borrow the stamp set -- I will be ordering this set ASAP!).

I stamped the onesie & elephant images onto the pattern paper and then cut them out and adhered them with dimensionals to the embossed scallop circles. For the elephants I also paper pieced their ears and adhered them with dimensionals. It is a little hard to see in the photo, but under each scallop circle is the sentiment "adorable" stamped in the same color as the cardstock.

I am hoping they can use them as thank you notes for some of the gifts they receive. Thanks for looking :-)

My daughters 1st grade teacher just had a new addition to his family last week, so this is for him & his wife. I still need to make a set of note cards for her to take in too as his gift. You will hopefully get to see those in the next couple of days.

This card was inspired by many of the cards I have seen with the squares of pattern paper across the front of the card. To dress it up a bit I added two score lines with my Scor-Pal above & below the pattern paper. (It is kind of hard to see those lines in the photo.) The pattern paper you can print FREE from www.papertreyink.com this month to sample the new Bitty Blessing Pattern paper. It is even more adorable in person! I then added the matching satin ribbon and the star is raised up on dimensionals. I used the word window punch for the sentiment, but stuck it back through the punch again to shorten it.

I needed a baby boy card and found inspiration at Nancy Riley's blog at iStamp (You can find the link to her blog in the sidebar). I love the simplicity of this card and the blue/white color combo. It has a nice clean look. Thanks Nancy for your inspiration!
