Even if you're not making a baby card, I hope some of the techniques in this project make their way into your other cards.
But first, here are the blog hop details.....

Supplies for this project:
Welcome

Flourished Night Sky
Flourished Frame
Welcome Little One Stamps
My Little Girl Paper
white cardstock
dark and pale pink cardstock
green cardstock
VersaMagic Malted Mauve stamp ink
Glue Dots
3D Foam Squares
Instructions:
- Stamp the oval sentiment on a panel of light pink paper measuring 4.25 x 6.25" closer to the top of the panel, as shown. (You will need to leave room for the Welcome die below.)
- Die cut Welcome and the solid backing of the onesie from dark pink paper. Die cut the Flourished Moon and the little flower (both from the Flourished Night Sky) and the Flourished Frame from white cardstock. Also cut a panel slightly larger than the pale pink panel from white cardstock as well.
- Die cut the onesie from patterned paper. Form a 6" x 7" high side-fold card base from coordinating patterned paper.
- Die cut the flower leaves from green cardstock.
- Assemble the onesie and adhere to the center of the stamped oval.
- Mount the stamped oval panel to the white panel. Cut the Flourished Frame in half lengthwise. Adhere the halves of the frame so they peak outside the white panel as shown. I used Glue Dots to do this.
- Adhere Welcome below the stamped oval sentiment. Add the leaves behind the flower with Glue Dots and adhere it to the flourish on Welcome with Foam Squares to give some dimension. Adhere the Flourished Moon as shown with Foam Squares.
- Adhere this to the cardbase with Foam Squares.
All done! I hope this gives you some ideas for creating your own card. Congrats to the new parents and happy creating to you!
Don't forget to leave a comment on the blog to be eligible to win a prize! Good luck.

I love how all the elements-the stamp, dies, paper, colors-complement each other so perfectly. Your calligraphy really makes it a classy baby card!
This is such a sweet card! I love all of the different elements!
I love the soft baby feel of the pink gingham. Thanks for the tip to cut the frame die cut in half, I will use this idea.

Wow! What a lovely card. Love the flourish style of all the dies.
thanks for the instructions for the really cute card!
A lovely welcoming baby card. Love the pink as it is my favourite card. A lot of good techniques to use on cards even if they are not baby one.
AWWWWWWW what an adorable new baby girl card! Just so precious! I especially love the Welcome Little One stamp!
Oh that's so cute! And it's PINK, my fave colour!

What a beautiful baby card. So soft.
Although I am not in need of any baby cards this one is lovely. I don't know why I have to be reminded that I can cut a frame diecut in half to use the way you did, but thank you!
So adorable. Any new mother would love to receive that..
Such a darling
card and love
the dies.

This is so cute. I love the colours you used.
This is an adorable card for a new baby girl (easily changed for a boy!) - I don't foresee the need for making such a card in the near future but I will certainly take away lots of ideas. Thank you.
love the pink and the peek a boo flourish
Love all the extra little details on this sweet card.
What a rich looking and eye-catching card. Definitely worth framing!!
What a great way to start the blog hop with a baby card - in the middle of these crazy times, a baby is a confirmation that is good and will go on. Your beautiful design for a little baby girl is just perfect - feminine and fun. Always love your flourishes.
A beautiful classic baby card!
Quietfire calligraphy is elegant. I love the combination of patterns and die cuts to create the perfect welcome for a baby girl.
Oh I love this card, wish I had seen it earlier, had just ordered baby elements. May still have to have it!,
Love the circle sentiment. Makes the card.
So sweet with the die cut onesie.
I admire the continuity of the ‘flourish’ - right from the backing of the card - including the moon - around the “Welcome Little One” sentiment and the bright pink “Welcome” calligraphic die cut.. And of course the plump pink onesie is adorable ��!!
Such a sweet card! I love the crescent moon with the flourish. So sweet!
Love the flourish..Makes for a more dainty card for a girl baby <3
