Hi All.
Some time back I was asked to make a baby boy card for one of the doctors at work who was about to become and Aunty. I was also HANGING out to try and make the booties I had seen around blog land with the Stocking Punch. I took my inspiration from here and here. Given that I wanted to give her a choice, I made a softer card and one a bit bolder.
The one inspired by Jackie Topa turned out like this....
Given that I had used the "Hello Baby" sentiment on the other card, I changed it to the "Welcome Baby" and used the wee nappy pin to make a patterned piece for the booties to sit on.
The bolder one I used Pacific Point.....a colour that I very rarely use, but was pleasantly surprised with the way it came up.
I am a sucker for dry embossing and the folders really for a work out here.....
She loved both but took the softer one.
Thanks for dropping by again.

You already know which one I like best ... given one is made with PP!!!! (wink)! But ... both are lovely, Lynda! Hugs xxx
I love these Lynda. I just saw these cute little booties on a blog the other day. What a great way to use the Christmas Socking punch!!! I haven't used mine yet, might need to pull it out soon and use it for myself once "little cashew" arrives!
Love the little booties, LOL, the stocking punch is on my wish list. Two gorgeous cards - hard to choose between them.
