Welcome Baby

Published by Michele Boyer at 8:11 am under My Designs, Whipper Snapper

Here’s another design using Anna’s new set, Bundle of Joy, by Whipper Snapper Designs. I used my favorite image in the set, the little pea pod baby. Awwww…

Welcome Baby

Using Brillance Graphite Black ink, I stamped the image onto vanilla cardstock, then again onto solid green and solid pink. The pea pod and pink blanket are paper-pieced, with the front leaf popped up on a dimensional. I colored in the little face with Copic markers, then outlined the image with a Cool Gray Copic.

I used my corner rounder to make the scallops, adding the flower eyelets with my Crop-a-dile.

More designs coming soon!

So cute! And just an edge of vintage feel which is a nice change from the totally sugar sweet baby stuff that’s also out there.

So cute!!! I love that you paper pieced the peapod and blanket! Those eyelets on the bottom are wonderful too! I need to try the outlining of images. That sure makes them POP! I don’t have a steady hand though

This is awsome! I love how your image colors match up so well with the DP, and the whole is pleasing and balanced to the eye.
