Bundle of Joy Rattle

Hi friends. It’s Lisa Mears on the blog today. For my card, I’m sharing a baby card I made using the Baby Rattle Shaker dies that was released with a variety of other celebration products.

I started with the Baby Words Stencil. I used Catherine Pooler inks in the following colors: Oh Boy, Chiffon, and Wintergreen. I masked each line with Scrapbook.com Mint Tape before inking the line to be sure that I didn’t get any ink into the next line. I love using different color inks on each line because it makes the words stand out even more.

The main focal point of my card is the baby rattle which I used the Baby Rattle Shaker dies. I die cut the shapes from white cardstock and used the same inks as I used in the stencil to ink the die cut shapes. Be sure to watch my YouTube video to see how I made the shaker. I added the Spring Breeze Shaker Beads inside of the shaker.

For the sentiment, I used the Sentiment Strips Occasions stamp set. I love how the sentiment “Bundle of Joy” fits perfectly inside the scallop piece of the rattle. I cut down my stenciled background to fit inside the largest Eyelet Rectangle die and added the layer to an A2 size card base.

Thank you for stopping by today. Have a great day!
