Babycakes - Baby, Baby Baby

It's a Boy!  My coworker just became a Grandma this week and I thought it was the prefect time to use the new Babycakes paper pack so I made another baby card. 
I love all the fun patterns with this paper and can't wait to explore more of my creative talent to use this paper pack. 
I used a newer stamp set, Wild Wonders, with a much older stamp set, Sweet Baby.  I stamped the head of each animal on a separate piece of cardstock, then cut the shape using the microtip scissors.  Using foam tape under the head to give a little something.  But the new Bronze shimmer tape really adds sparkle to this card! And, of course I can't forget about the heart I used out of the Babycakes Complements pack.

Welcome Baby Card - boy

I love this cute little card I made this weekend for my friend whoop it's expecting a boy this June. 

To create this adorable little card, i used the CTMH's My
Acrylix Stamp set "It's a Zoo - C1360" that is now a retired stamp set.  I inked the monkey in Gypsy ink, the giraffe in Goldrush, and the elephant in Indian Corn Blue (all Exclusive Inks by CTMH).  The sentiment was stamped in Pacifica ink and I used Pacifica cardstock for the border on the left and to frame each animal.

Baby Treat Box

My first artwork using my CTMH Cricut Artiste cartridge!  My hubby came home today to tell me he had an office baby shower to go to the next day.  So this was my perfect chance to make something cute with my new toy.  We were not sure of the baby's gender so I found the gender-neutral bag in the closet and it led to the creativity for me.

So I made this box and had some cute pastel cardstock around.  The stamp set it also CTMH with the cute baby images and the letters are one of the new stamp sets from CTMH as well.  I used coordinating inks with the cardstock and here you go!  My very own creation all from a bag!  It was the perfect size to put a gift card inside and left a little extra room.

Here you can see how this measures out; although it did cut off a full 12 x 12 sheet of cardstock.

When I came home today I had to ask my hubby, "what did they think?" and was told they loved it.  So that makes me feel special.
