We're off and running for 2016 at Crafty Cardmakers & More.

 
It's a New Year -  New Challenges to try and
2 New Designers.
Welcome to the Team Angela Judy & Ngaere
 
 
For our first Challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers -
hosting this one is Sally and she has chosen
New Baby-Marriage-Home etc - you get the drift.
***
My niece is due to have a baby in a few months so it was
a perfect time to make a Baby Card.
Starting with white cs as my base I then cut some
scraps pieces of paper on an angle embossing
with some very old Cuttlebug Embossing Borders.
Perfect size...
These were attached to a white base.
I then added some pink cs topped with
some scrap DP.
Added various coloured buttons a little cotton
and some rhinestones.
My tag was cut from Kaisercraft  Tag Die
and BABY was cut with Cuttlebug Typewriter dies.
I just love those cb dies. They are one of the first things
I bought many years ago when I was just starting out
making cards.
***
I am playing along at
Cuttlebug Mania as their challenge is -
use  'New' in your project. Got that one covered (Baby)
where I have used letters - yes that too.
 
So there you have it...
Thanks so much for dropping in.

What an adorable baby card and love the background you did for it. It reminds me sort of a funky quilt design.

What a fabulous card Ina, and a wonderful idea for using up scraps of card. I have those embossing borders too and have never used them, so I think I might have to steal your idea sometime if that is OK.

Oh my gosh, Ina! This is just too cute. I love the way you creatively used your scraps. I will have to pin this to my pinterest board. I am getting over run with scraps. It is such a happy and sweet card. I know your niece will treasure it.
