Today’s Kreation is a Bundle of Joy!
Using the bright joyous new In Colors – Tangerine Tango & Pacific Point, I created a happy baby card. I started this card using a base of Pacific Point. To the base, I added a card front using a piece of Tangerine Tango and a piece of the Sweet Always designer series paper. On the flip side of this floral pattern is a Chocolate Chip background, with white, Pumpkin Pie, Regal Rose and Pink Pirouette polka dots (see photo below and more details on page 171 in the Fall/Winter Idea Book & Catalog). NOTE: The catalog download is quite large - so please be patient, it is worth the wait . However, you can purchase a hard copy of the beautiful Fall/Winter Idea Book & Catalog through me for only $9.95. I'll even cover the shipping costs of your catalog if purchased by August 31st.
Using a Hostess Level I set – called "Punches Three", I inked the Little Bundle of Joy stamp in Tangerine Tango. This set fits this card perfectly, as I used three punches to create this card. 1) Wide Oval Punch 2) Curly Label Punch 3) Ticket Corner Punch.
I popped this image out using the new wide oval punch. I also inked the image in Pacific Point and carefully trimmed out the center, then mounted it atop two Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Beneath the stamped image, you’ll notice a “frame” of Pacific Point peeking out on the top and bottom. I created this by punching out some textured Pacific Point cardstock using the new Curly Label punch (see photo below and more details on page 189; sold in a bundle). I sliced the punched out image in half and mounted each half to the top and bottom of my Bundle of Joy image.
The 5/8” striped grosgrain ribbon in Pacific Point, give this card a nice finishing touch. You’ll also notice four brads from the Fire & Ice collection sitting in each corner. I feel this card is strong enough for a bouncing baby boy, yet gentle enough for a baby girl.
