Baby Girl Birth Announcements


I was asked if I would like to help Pay It Forward for a maternity ward in Arizona. I love to help others out so I couldn't say no. What I had to do was make birth announcement cards for moms. I agreed to make 2 sets of girl cards. These sets are very similar except the DSP is different and I did more sponging on the left card. I got the idea of this card from Sarah Makin.


This card has more sponging on it. The crumb cake and DSP both have sponging as well. Hard to see on here...


On the inside of the cards I added a place for the moms to add the details of the birth. The sets are not complete but when they are, I will post a picture of the complete sets!

Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets: Fox & Friends 118565 -clear mount -also available in wood mount; Something Sweet 118589 -clear mount -also available in wood mount
Card stock: Pretty in Pink -size 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4; Crumb Cake -size 4 x 4; Love Patterns Designer Series Paper Pack -size 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 (retired); Very Vanilla -size 3 x 3
Ink: Classic Stampin' Pad -Pretty in Pink 101301; Crumb Cake 121030; Old Olive 102277; Rose Red 101778
Other Supplies: 1/4" Grosgrain Pretty in Pink Ribbon 109032; Sponge 101610

Business Card & Box



I made my own business cards!!!! I am so excited to have them made but not just made stamped as well!!! You can't have a business card and not using something Stampin' Up! on them.

I used a website that allows you to make your own cards for FREE and print them on your own printer!! I bought the vanilla business card paper from Staples where the paper is perforated, so you get 10 cards from one sheet. After printing, I stamped each card with the Tropical Party stamp set (now retired). And Voila!!!

Once my cards where complete I realized that I needed something to put them in, so nothing is better than a handmade box. I created a template using the dimensions of the cards which is 2 x 3 1/2 and came out with a 8 1/4" x 10" sheet of card stock to work with.

Supplies Used:
Stamp Set: Tropical Party (retired)
Card stock: Very Vanilla -size 8 1/4 x 10 scored & scrap; Melon Mambo -size 1/2 x 3 3/4 & scrap
Inks: Classic Stampin' Pad -Melon Mambo 115656; Stampin' Write Marker -Basic Black 100082
Other Supplies: Linen Thread 104199; Jewelry Tag Medium Punch 117190 ; Basic Black Brad 119736; Glue Dots 103683; Paper-Piercing Tool 116631; Mat Pack 105826
