Cute Bump Baby Card for Woodblock Wednesday June 2024

 Hello everyone.  I am so happy to share with you a card that I made super quickly for Woodblock Wednesday.  Technically I made this card for Wednesday but I will be sharing a couple days later which is today.  Thankful Amy keeps this challenge open for a few days after Wednesday.




Here are my woodblock stamps that I used for my Bump Baby card.  I first looked through all my woodblock stamps and found this group to use.  So fun. The happy pregnancy one is from Michaels and the baby footprints are from etsy quite a while ago.  The sentiment might have been from Michaels too.



Isn't it sweet?  It's been ages since I have made a Baby card.  In fact, I may have never made a bump card like this before. I started out with some white cardstock.  I stamped the Happy pregnancy woodblock with memento Tuxedo ink. I then cut it out with a scalloped tag die from Kat Scrappiness.  I  used  the 2nd to the smallest tag die.  Next, I put my tag aside.



I made my background using white cardstock and stamped just the bump image from the Happy Pregnancy woodblock all over on my cardstock.  The sentiment was far away on this stamp that I didn't even have to mask it.  So good!  I then stamped the Congratulations sentiment all over in open spaces.  I then forgot about the baby feet lol So it worked out that I could stamp it all over in Catherine Pooler Limoncello. Love that yellow ink and those footprints. I then cut out my background with a retired Spellbinders Essentials labels die using the largest die.



Next, I colored in the dress bump image with Yellow copic markers in Y02, Y06, Y13.  I found some yellow polkadot ribbon in my stash and tied a bow on my tag.  I glued my bow with liquid glue and then placed foam dots on the back of my tag.  I glued my background to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and popped up my tag.  I chose no embellishments as i felt the bow was enough.  I placed a essentials label in white for the inside of my card.  When it is needed I will mail it or gift it with this yellow envelope.  



I had so much fun making this card.  I now want to build my stash with this design I think it's so sweet and I'm so into yellow right now.  I hope I inspired you to grab your woodblock stamps or to make a  card like this one.

Happy Crafting!

 Hello everyone.  I have my last card for June using A Colorful Life Designs Newest Release.  I hope you enjoyed the release as much as I have.  Please use coupon VonFan10 to save 10% off.


On my card, I used the New Koi Stencil.  You might have remembered me using it once before as I love it so much.  For this card, I used white cardstock.  I ink blended the stencil on white cardstock using inks Catherine Pooler Tiki Torch.  I then used Catherine Pooler's Aquatini ink and ink blended around my Koi fish.


Next, I cut out my background using a rectangle die.  I then layered my background on some bright orange cardstock from my stash that was cut at 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I then stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from a retiring Hero Arts stamp set called Mermaid Wishes using versamark and white embossing powder on colored cardstock.  I then fussy cut my sentiment.  I glued my background and orange panel to a A2 card base.  I adhered my sentiment with foam tape and glued some orange sequins to match.  I love how it came out.  I will be back with July's Release and I think your going to love the New Release.

I Truly Appreciate You!

 Hello everyone. I Truly Appreciate You, It's True.  I definitely should say that more.  I have a card I made using Pinkfresh Studio.  I have been wanting to use the Blooming Vines Set for awhile and today was the day. Yay!


I had so much fun using this set.  I started out using the Rubber background Stamp.  I placed some Neenah 110lb paper A2 size into my Misti Stamping Platform and stamped this background stamp with black ink.  I'm sure it would look amazing embossed too. I will have yo give it a try next time.  


I love that it has coordinating stencils because I was done in no time.  There are 4 stencils.  I used them in order with Concord & 9th ink cubes.  I started out with Parsley, Evergreen, Poppy, and Cranberry.  So pretty.  I used small blending brushes.


Next, I used the Coordinating die that cuts everything out at once..So good.  Once I had all my pieces, I arranged them onto a A2 Neenah 110 lb. panel with foam strips.  I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from another Pinkfresh Stdio stamp set that is retired called Thankful For Friends.  I cut the sentiment to fit and adhered it with a foam strip. Next, I glued it to my A2 110 lb. card base.


To finish my card I embellished with some Emerald City Gems from Pinkfresh Studio and used my glitter pen to glitter my florals.  I love how it came out.


Supplies:

Pinkfresh Studio Blooming Vines Rubber Stamp
