Football Themed Baby Cards

A friend at work ordered a Vikings Themed Baby Card for a guy she works with that is having a baby girl. I found this image on the internet and thought it was perfect. I cut it out and popped dotted it.

I used MFTWSC244 as my inspiration which is Sketch #1 at the September Card Sketch Challenge on Scrapbook.com.

SUPPLIES:
Cardstock: Bazzill

I then realized I made this card in 2016 and forgot to post it. This is another card I made for a guy I worked with that year. He had a baby boy and they did his room in Alabama Crimson  Tide.

I used a cut file for the onsie but I can’t remember which one.

Farm themed baby card

Inside: It’s a Boy! Congratulations

One of the guys I worked with last year just had his first baby so I wanted to make him a congratulations card. From what I could get out of him is that his wife was doing a vintage farm theme…well that’s how I interpreted it! So I went through my files and searched the internet and thought Farm Critters and Barn from Doodle Pantry fit the theme. I was stumped at first as what to do with the image because I just didn’t want to print it out and stick it on the card. So I went back to the internet where I found this awesome card on The Rubber Cafe Design Team Blog. The design it was the perfect design for all the elements I wanted on the card. My best friend, Stephanie, took my ideals and made the cute saying!

Sweet Baby Boy and Girl

 

I made three cards for my old boss to choose from…this is one of them. I was inspired by this card
http://sylvia-anne-poppyspapercraftpatch.blogspot.com/2014/03/sweet-baby-girl-at-atcas.html
I don’t do white space well so I decided to have a colored background that matched by alphabet stickers!! I used the Hammer Embossing Technique. The blue one wasn’t done well because it was my first try…I learned you do have to hit pretty hard.

I also made this in pink since I had pink stickers just like the blue… and I made 2 in each color since I did one in all caps and the other in all lower case.

For Baby
