Welcome Baby

Happy Friday, DT Annalisa here. I am sharing a mixed-media baby card I created using the Loads of Love stamp set, the Five Windows Cover Die, and the Tiled Wall 6 x 6" Stencil from Time For Tea Designs.

For the mixed-media background, I applied Ranger Distress Crackle Paste with a palette knife through the Tiled Wall 6 x 6" Stencil onto Distress Watercolour Cardstock by Ranger. Once the paste dried, I used Distress Watercolour Pencils in the colours Speckled Egg, Broken China, Weathered Wood, and Stormy Sky. I dipped the pencils in water to soften the pigment and then used them to apply colour to the paper.

After the panel dried, I adhered it to a card base using liquid glue. I die-cut white cardstock with the Five Windows Cover Die and attached it to the card as well.

For the floor area, I ink-blended Lost Shadow and Weathered Wood onto woodgrain cardstock. I trimmed this paper to fit inside the largest opening and secured it with liquid glue.

Next, I stamped multiple images from the Loads of Love stamp set and cut them out using the coordinating dies. I colored the images with Copics and added accents with a white gel pen.

To finish the card, I used liquid glue and various thicknesses of double-sided foam tape to adhere the images to the card base. I added the 'baby' sentiment using Watermelon Margarita Puffy Alpha Stickers.

I hope you like it!
