Hi, Friends......
Everyone at church is so excited that our pastor and his wife are expecting their first baby! I wanted to make a special congratulatory card for them. I used a sweet thrift store stamp that says:
"God's most beautiful thoughts bloom into children."
I wanted to use this adorable teddy bear confetti, so a shaker seemed the way to go. :)
I also did a little bit of dressing up the inside, but nothing too fancy. I discovered with these last two cards that decorating the inside of my cards is a great way to use more scraps!!! Yay!!
Other supplies used include:
Sizzix - Circles, Scallop
Congratulations stamp from my stash
Ranger - Archival Ink (Wendy Vecchi Designer Series) in Forget-Me-Not
Scraps from my stash
Hope you enjoyed this card. Thank you so much for stopping by. Your comments make my day!!
