Baby Card using the Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper and Wildly Happy Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!
My cousin has had a baby! I thought I would make a card for her to celebrate the little boy's arrival. I wanted to go for something a little less baby and a little more upscale. I added the Gilded Autumn DSP and Forever Gold Specialty Laser Cut paper to achieve that look. What do you think? If you want to try your own version of the card I included what I used below!
- Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock - Card Base 4 1/4 x 11" scored at 5 1/2" and a scrap for the die-cut square for the elephants
- Mint Macaron 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock - Scrap for the fern die-cut

Elegant Christmas card using the new Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing folder (My sample from my Stampin' Cut and Emboss machine demo!)
Shaded spruce is one of my favorite greens from Stampin' Up! I used it when I made my demo video because I knew I could easily create a card with my embossed piece. Here is what I came up! I hope you like it.
I especially like the inside stamping that I had not previously planned! It made for a nice tie in with the outside of the card.
