Baby Shower card by Shanna
One of my favorite products that Amy has released has got to be the stitching templates! I love making fun, simple, one of a kind cards using nothing more than the template, some thread and white card stock. Sometimes I will also add a small sentiment as well, but seriously folks it doesn't get easier!
I start with my card base and decide which template to use. For this baby shower card (baby boy!) I decided to use blues and greens so I picked out some of my favorites from my thread stash (this is actually the kids friendship bracelet kit, don't tell anyone!).
Once I have pierced the holes using the Amy Tangerine template I just started with one balloon and worked my way around. I love that the balloons have the stripes, it just adds a special little touch! I am a fan of using washi on the back side to secure everything, easy and FUN!
Once I was done with the balloons I added a little bow made out of the same thread I used of bows and just a touch of hot glue. I kept the sentiment super simple so that the balloons are the star of the show! Once I was done with the front I simple added a piece of scrap paper to the back to cover up my hot mess and a hand written note to wrap it up!
What I love most about these templates is that I can make dozens of these cards with these templates and now that I have my basic design down it will be amazingly simple!!
Love the colors and stitching! Thanks for sharing, Shanna! Shop for Amy Tangerine products at your local scrapbook stores and online at Simon Says Stamp and Blue Moon Scrapbooking and Scrapbook.com.
