This card was another commissioned card, this time through the shop. Baby James is apparently the first baby to be born into his family for 30 YEARS!!! (Can you believe that?!) so the client wanted 'something special'. I had a card to hand that was more or less the same, showed it to her, and she said that it was just what she was looking for. She told me what she wanted the sentiment to say on the front of the card, and I suggested the 'Silver Cross' pram as the embellishment.
The card base is an A4 which was covered with baby script paper. A large, intricate frame was cut from white Bazzil and adhered to the card front with foam pads. The sentiment (apart from 'James') was computer generated onto white textured cardstock, then cut into an oval. 'James' was cut from blue shimmer cardstock and adhered above the sentiment. The completed oval was adhered to a scalloped oval and adhered over the aperture in the frame. The pram was cut from silver mirri card and blue shimmer cardstock and emebellished with a blue pearl heart. It was adhered below the sentiment with foam pads. A floral arrangement was adhered to the top of the oval. A sheer bow and a smattering of pearls completes the card.
