Happy Saturday! It’s time for another Saturday Blog Hop! Our theme is our “Favorite Subtles Color”. I knew right away what color I would use…Soft Seafoam!  And that color makes me think of baby cards!

 

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 5-1/2 x 7-1/2 (yes!  Shorter size!), scored at 4-1/4 and folded with the short side on the front.
• A1-1/4 x 5-1/2 strip of Twinkle Twinkle DSP was added to the inside flap on the right side so it shows on the front.
• The shorter flap on front was embossed with the Dot to Dot Embossing Folder.
• The elephants and congratulations in Little Elephants stamp set were stamped with Night of Navy on Whisper White, the hearts with Real Red.
• They were cut with the Scallop Layering Oval Framelits.  It was layered on the large Layering Oval cut from Night of Navy and adhered to the front flap with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

That is it!  Simple stamping with a little designer paper!  Now, continue the blog hop to see what is our Design Team Member’s favorite Subtles Family color this week! Next up is our Create with Connie and Mary website, then on to creative Mary Brown, or head backwards to see Melissa’s fabulous card!

This month Create with Connie and Mary is bringing back the music of the 80s!!!  Here’s another song that will get stuck in your head!  This week it is the 80’s song “Sweet Dreams are made of this”…we are doing baby cards!  I couldn’t wait to use my new Little Elephant stamp set!

 

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Whisper White cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
• On the 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White, a 1-3/4 x 4 piece of Poppy Parade Designer Paper (Brights) was added across the center.
• On the 2-1/4 x 4-1/4 piece of Whisper White, the greeting was stamped with Poppy Parade Ink at the bottom.  It was layered on a 2-1/2 x 4-1/2 piece of Basic Black cardstock, then adhere to the front.
• On scrap Whisper White, the gingham “quilt” was stamped with Poppy Parade Ink and cut out, then adhered across the front above the greeting.
• The two sizes of elephants were stamped with Gray Granite Ink on scrap Whisper White and punched with the Elephant Builder Punch.  The ears were stamped again with Poppy Parade Ink and punched.  They were popped up on the front of the Whisper White panel.
• The hearts were stamped above the small elephant.
• Finally, two black Faceted Dots were added on the “quilt”.
