Celebration - Stampin' Creative Global Blog Hop

Happy Blog Hop Day!

Each month demonstrators from around the globe bring you projects they have designed around a common theme.  This month the theme is "CELEBRATE".

I'm sure at this time of year most people who are asked to create a "Celebrate" themed card would gravitate towards a New Year card.  Not me.  Nope.  When I saw "Celebrate" I started to think about things that I LOVE to celebrate.  Birthdays, weddings and babies!  I'm now at the age where many of my friends are graduating from "Mom" to "Grandma" and I need to have more cards to celebrate THAT wonderful event so here is MY card on the theme "Celebrate":

Isn't it SWEET??  I just love how it turned out.  It has such a "soft" look about it ... and it was ridiculously quick and easy to make!

Our Whisper White was used for the base and the layer (5" x 3 3/4") was run through the "Subtle" embossing folder.  I then ran a piece of Seaside Spray card stock through the Cut & Emboss machine with one of the Ornate Layers dies to make a pretty frame.  I stamped on another Whisper White layer measuring 3 1/2" x 2 1/4" with the bird nest from "Birds & Branches" in Early Espresso Ink.  The sentiment is from "Here's a Card" and is also in Early Espresso.  I stamped the eggs in both Seaside Spray and Misty Moonlight ink (on a scrap of white) and cut them out with the Birds & More Dies.  The two Seaside Spray eggs are popped up on mini dimensionals.  The Misty Moonlight eggs are attached with glue dots.  

What I ADORE about the card are the two small details I added.  One is a little glitz I added to just one of the eggs, from our Elegant Faceted Gems ...

... the other is a teeny little bow I made from our Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon ...

Those two small details, combined with the soft colour palette, romantic frame and lots of white space make this a REALLY sweet baby card that I will be proud to send to my friends to help them CELEBRATE their little miracle.

I hope you like it as much as I do!  The full product list is at the end of this post.

With that I'll sign off and say HAPPY NEW YEAR!  Have fun, stay safe but definitely CELEBRATE!
