A baby is a kiss from Heaven.......

I've got a couple of baby cards for you today. I thought that the sentiment was perfect for these cute babies sleeping on a crescent moon. The card is a 6" square tent fold with a punched bottom edge. The papers are from Dovecraft's New Arrival 6" pad. I added a border with a punched edge and trimmed with satin polka dot ribbon. A scalloped oval holds the cute baby cut from flesh-coloured cardstock and patterned paper. The moons were cut from sparkly gift wrap and adhered to a base image cut from plain cardstock. The clouds and plain oval (embossed with the Dovecraft 'Boofle' embossing folder after cutting) were cut from white textured cardstock. The 'moon babies' were adhered to the embossed ovals with foam pads. These in turn were adhered to the scalloped ovals and adhered with more foam pads to the front of the card. The ovals were embellished with a WOC bloom. The sentiment was computer generated onto white textured cardstock, matted with coloured card and then adhered to the card front with foam pads. A trio of punched stars completes the card.
Carts used:
Moon baby- Baby Steps
Scalloped ovals- Elegant Edges
Plain ovals- Opposites Attract
I've found that this oval from Opposites Attract fits most scalloped ovals, especially the ones from StoryBook. The ovals on George are a little too elongated to fit perfectly, whereas these ovals are a little more 'squat' and fit perfectly.
Thanks for dropping by today!
