We’re Expecting a Baby Girl Card #2

Here’s the second card I made to announce to family in other states that we’re having our first baby! This card came so naturally to me. I find that I have the most fun making card with spray inks and using my fingers. If it leaves my hands messy then I probably had that much more fun making it!

Here’s a list of the supplies I used:

Cardstock Stencil made using Amperzand Font on Silhouette Cameo 2  traced with Fude Ball Pen 

Ken Oliver Color Bursts in Alizarin Crimson and Ultramarine Blue

Luster Mica Spray Mist ( I stopped selling these due to the time they take to make. I still have the powders and bottles available if you are interested. I can post them for sale.)

Floral Frame Stencil used with Distress Paint in Spun Sugar , Gel Medium mixed with Mica Powder, and Silks Acrylics. (apply using a palette knife)

Tim Holtz Dot Fade Stencil used with Inka Gold in Champagne. (rub with your finger. Such a fun effect!)

I thoroughly enjoy making mixed media cards. I hope you give this one a try! Remember, subscribe to us on YouTube so you can get notified when the video for this card goes live!

Many of these products can be purchased at Simon Says Stamp as well as our e-bay store.

We’re Expecting a Baby Card

Hi Everyone! It sure has been a while since I have posted. Well, that’s because I’m pregnant! I am actually 22 weeks pregnant today. I had horrible nausea for the first 20 weeks and am on medication for it. I am finally feeling like myself again and got some crafty time in. (yay!)

Here’s one of the cards I made to announce to family in other states that I’m going to be having a baby!

I made this sweet card using the following supplies:

Lawn Fawn Let’s Polka in the Meadow paper Collection Pack

Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid paper collection pack

Silhoutte Cameo 2 with Amperzand font

Elephant and heart stamps from an older stamp set bought at Michael’s

Onsie stamp from Lawn Fawn Little Bundle Stamp Set 

Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers 

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

Memento London Fog Ink

Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Picked Raspberry

I will be editing and posting a video later showing me make this card. Make sure you follow me on YouTube so you can see it when it goes live!

I have two other announcement cards that I made for family in other states and they’re all different designs. Stay tuned because I will post them in the coming days. Thank you for stopping by!
