New Beginnings


Crafty Cardmakers is having a New Beginning challenge, out first challenge this year.  Hope you join us this.  

For my new beginnings card I decided to make a card for a new baby using a stamp from Stampin Up that I had in my collection for many years.  The stamp was originally a stamp on a roller but I unmounted it from the roller and use it as a conventional rubber stamp.  I have always loved this stamp and have used it as a group of onies or individually. 

I coloured my images with watercolor , and added a heart button, ribbon and a sentiment to complete the card. Thank you for stopping by and have a creative week.  Remember to stop by our  challenge blog to see the inspiring creations of the very talented design team.

  2. Hi Judy, love your card. I have unmounted some of my roller images too but don't have this adorable one. Wished I did as I could make the cards ahead of time and colour it as you have, would then be good for either boy or girl. Neat!
