Heard the SWELL News...



A friend of mine (who will be turning 41 this summer) just started telling people she's 3 mos. preggo... Another friend of mine was the one who told me and after I stopped laughing so hard (ROTFLMAO), I was like, "SERIOUS???  OMG! Thank goodness it's not me!"   LOL
Sorry peeps, but I'm closer to the being-ready-to-be-a-Grandma stage than being-a-new-(again)-MOM stage...   Actually, I think I'm still in shock!


Anyways, I just HAD to make her a card and thought I'd share my creation... the button didn't photograph well, as it actually matches the blush colour.  TFL


Supplies used (all CTMH unless otherwise noted):
Paper: Blush, White Daisy CS
Font: CTMH Hippo
Chalk: Spring Soft Chalks
Embellishments: White Daisy floss, Light pink button (stash), White organdy (Walmart)
Tools: Micro-tip scissors, Cuttlebug, Sizzix Petals a Plenty embossing folder (SU), Sanding block
Adhesive: Tombo Mono Multi (LSS), 3D foam tape (other)

What a great idea for a card! I will have to try this one. I just sent my last "expecting" card in the mail yesterday to my sweet SIL. This will be a fun card to create for other expecting mommas.

How creative! Very cute! Do you have a diagram of how you did the pregnant woman figure?

Dawn said...

Hilarious! I am getting to that stage too, though being a Grandma can wait a few more years and that would be fine too. LOVE your wit!

Michelle Quinno said...

OMG, that is way too cute!!

To answer your question Dana, I don't really have a diagram that I could easily share. I simply drew a shape onto grid paper, cut it out and used it for a template to cut my cardstock. ;)

Vicki, this is really precious. Very clever.

I am late to this party. Adorable card! Thank you for sharing what products you used. Question, how did you do the actual belly? I am not seeing the name of the die? Thanks in advance.
