B is for Baby

Hello and welcome to Monday!  It’s Leslie here today for a little Dies R Us inspiration.   Babies don’t stop for Christmas, do they?   I had the great pleasure and infinite FUN this month of making a baby card to celebrate a new arrival, so that’s what I’m here to share today.  First, the card:

Bees buzzing over the card front, a popped up frame, a banner cut from designer paper and decorated with tiny flowers. . .  Everything I used is listed in the recipe at the end of this post, but I’ll share the list of dies here:

• Impression Obsession Rectangle 6-in-1 Frames
• La-La Land Random Flags Banner
• Frantic Stamper Ladybug & Bee
• Impression Obsession Tiny Flowers
• Impression Obsession Leaf Cluster

And the inside:

I cut the bee bodies again from the yellow designer paper to decorate the inside.  Also used one of the tiny hearts that dropped out of the banner when I cut it – see it there at the end of the bee’s flight trail.  The sentiment was colored directly on the rubber with individual markers.

We start a new challenge tomorrow on the Dies R Us Challenge Blog.  The entries are always so fabulous and inspiring and I’d love to see yours there, as well.  You might win!  Have a good day and a beautiful Christmas season!
