Baby Cards







I have a trio of baby cards today, all for this week's CAS-ual Friday's CFC56:  Sweet Spot challenge.  I was inspired by this card by Jenny--I just loved her idea of using the negative of those PTI alphabet dies.  Although there are no babies in sight anywhere in my life, I am now prepared for any sort of baby that might come along--girl, boy, or unknown.

For the baby girl:  Melon Berry Bitty Dot Paper and a sentiment from Whale Wishes:




For the baby boy:  Patterned paper from Echo Park Splash, polka dots from the PTI polka dot IP--large side  (I just realized they are impossible to see, but trust me, they are there), sentiment from Whale Wishes:




For the surprise:  Plaid paper made with Off Beat Backgrounds by Waltzingmouse in Aqua Mist and Lemon Tart, sentiment from PTI Piece of Cake, polka dots from the PTI polka dot IP--small side.



Here they are, all together:





Thanks for Visiting

  14. These are so CAS - love the graphic style and the cut out letters. So sweet the different papers you used for each. I'm going with the pastel plaid - so happy looking and soft like a nursery blanket!
