This card making extravaganza all started in the month before baby Heidi was due to arrive, it happened like this…
- I was very pregnant
- I had finished work
- I was getting bored
- Desperately looking for something to help kill the time (and take my mind of the impending birth)
- Decided to make some cards to use as thank-you’s when the baby arrived.
Off to the local craft shop I went, in search of some cards (and inspiration)…
Kaiser Craft dragonfly stamp and purple ink pad…
Kaiser Craft green paper card pack…
Kikki K Ingrid gel pens (I used the silver one for the flight path of the dragon fly)…
The completed thank-you card …
and envelope…
Whilst at the shop, I saw these train die cut cards, and couldn’t resist…
Using material at home I sewed a piece onto the inside of the card to fill the space… I tried it with gingham and stripe – I think the gingham looks better…
I had a few comments from friends about how I managed to find the time to make thank-you cards with a new baby – I didn’t… I was very tricky, and made them before Heidi was born!
Cheers,
Bernice
