This is my very first card.
Not too long ago, I got a call from a dear friend of mine. "I'm pregnant!" she confessed. I was so happy for her! Of course, my joy was an enough excuse to make a card.
For this card I used:
- a dark -red (burgundy) card stock
- a pink shade flowery mat stack prints (sticker paper)
- a wavy dark pink ribbon, "American Crafts"
- a heart-shaped decorative stencil, "Crafts Etc."
- two pink buttons
- a sheer sheet of paper.
I cut the burgundy card stock in a rectangular with the dimensions that I desired (all right...I don't remember, I'll be better next time! :-) )
I cut the pink shade flowery mat stack print in a rectangular with the dimensions 6.1/2 '- 5.1/2 '. I sticked it on the lower side of the burgundy sheet (it's self adhesive).
I cut some wavy dark pink ribbon, glued it (with Glue Stick from The Paper Studio) on the upper line of the self adhesive print.
I cut a round shape out of a sticker paper sheet (pattern with alternating dark and light pink rhombuses), then cut a square of it off, to give the general shape of a baby carriage.
I used two light pink buttons for wheels.
I used heart-shaped decorative stencil to cut a cute heart from the same paper with the background card stock and hang it on the ribbon.
I used a little piece of sheer paper to write my message for my friends.
Please see the picture for reference.
I hope you like this card!!
I'd like some input on something: what kind of glue could I use so it's not so obvious on the back of the sheer (transparent) paper? Thank you!
