D.I.Y. BABY CONGRATS


As with wedding cards I save all the cards received on every birth of our four boys, thankful that we have wonderful loved ones in our lives to share our joy on the arrival of our little gifts from God, our precious children. All new parents would gladly receive cards to welcome their little bundle of joy and celebrate with them.

Pastel colored papers go well with baby cards.

I used Jeart 1701086 balloon#3 die cut.

And Jeart 1710007 baby articles/pram.

Cut out backing, sandwich with foam tape and stick double tape to the back.

Cut out a Jeart 1701104-12 Gift tag for messages, touch up the sides with pink chalk and embellish the tag.

Finished card after assembling. Inside card reads Congratulations.

Different design but using same Jeart Baby Articles (Pram & Bottle) die shapes. The brown background paper is handmade paper. Wet the outline of the shape and slowly tear off to give that fiber effect.

Foam in its thickness gives that raised effect. Easy to adhere with double sticky
Another baby card design -for baby boys :) using Jeart 1301038 Giraffe, 1301035 Pin and 1710007 Baby Articles die shapes.

Color the giraffe, pin and bottle with acrylic or other paints. Cut another for backing. Sandwich with tiny bits of foam tapes and adhere to card.

D.I.Y. BIRTHDAY CARD WITH JEART SHAPE DIES

There are a couple of Jeart die shapes used to make this card.

Roll and cut out the dog die with different colored papers, depending on what color you want your dog to look like. Refer to blog archive under "Fan of dogs".

Cut outs of dogs.

Cut a backing for the dog body by cutting card paper around the dog shape.

For 3-D effect, cut small pieces of foam tape and stick around the die cut.

Stick backing on.

To give the dog's paw a two-colored tone, cut two pieces of different colors and glue one on top of the other.

Color the flap of the body which is used here for dog's tongue.

The pieces are now ready for assemble. You can play around to find your ideal dog.

A cheerful playful dog.

Dog with collar.

Cut out balloon with balloon die shape.

Stick tiny foam tapes for 3-D effect.
Stick a backing of different color to give two-color tone.

Cut out the card size with cardstock paper. Cut another of slightly smaller size and glue onto the card.

The card is ready to be decorated with embellishments.

Cut a tag out of tag die shape.

The finished card with stamped messages.
