Step by Step
1
Cut a circle of gingham paper (from the red hot capsule collection) a little smaller than the card blank, using wavy-edged scissors. Ink the edges with dark pink ink and stick to the card blank. Note: the card’s hinge will be at the top of the finished card.
2
Pop the large bunny from the decoupage pack, stick onto pink Core’dinations card and cut round to leave a border a couple of millimetres wide. Stick to the middle of the card on foam pads. Cut out a small flower from the background of the decoupage sheet, fix to the bunny’s head on a piece of foam pad and finish with a pink gem. Fix a pink dotty bow to the top of the card using a 3D transparent dot.
3
Stamp individual hand script letters for ‘Baby Girl’ in pink ink onto white card and cut round to leave a white border. Stick to pink Core’dinations card, cut round and fix to the top curve of the card using foam pads.
4
Stamp the baby’s birth date in a curve in pink ink onto white card. To check the curved layout of your stamps, position the clear stamp block over the card. Alternatively, draw round the edge of the card blank onto white card to give you a line to follow. Cut out the date banner, matt onto pink Core’dinations card and fix to the bottom of the card blank with foam pads.
5
Finish the card with triplets of pale and bright pink adhesive stones along the card edges.
