Her card was for a little boy, so I had to find my colors and patterns to go with a little girl. The frit one I made was the Grapefruit Grove, but I felt it was too much Grapefruit Grove, so I made a second one using Blushing Bride. Like I said, they are very easy to make!
Recipe:
The Card:
Blushing Bride - 4 1/4" x 11", scored and folded at 5 1/2"
Line up the folded edge of the cardstock on your trimmer at 1 1/4". Cut down to the 1 1/2" mark.
Flip the cardstock over and repeat on the other side.
Connect the two lower cut lines to create the top opening of the overalls
The Straps:
Blushing Bride - 1 1/4" x 2 1/4" - Cut Two
Use the Detailed Trio Punch to round the bottom corners of the two straps
The Pocket:
I used the 2018-2020 In Color Designer Series Paper - 1 3/4" x 1 3/4"
Trim the bottom edges to form a pocket. I just used by scissors but you could also use the Tailored Tag Punch.
Run the front of the card and the strap pieces through the Big Shot with your embossing folder of choice. I used Quilt Top and did my best on the 2nd card (the Blushing Bride) to line the straps up in the same place as they were for the main card so they lined up nicely.
Stamps - Sweet Baby Bundle -
Stamp the baby and appropriate headgear for your baby choice (boy or girl) and color with Stampin Blends then cut with matching dies. THIS SET IS RETIRING - so be sure to grab it before it's gone!
I attached the baby to the inside of the pocket - oh and remember - you don't have to color all of the baby, just the part that will be sticking out. Pop the pocket up with Stampin' dimensionals.
Isn't this just adorable!? Thank You Lisa for such a cute project and great details.
