Baby Dresser Cards

Leave a comment
 Hello Crafty Friends, Noelene here today sharing some sweet baby cards I recently made.

First I created the Baby Dresser Card for a boy (SVG, Silhouette).
I then decided that I loved it so much that I would make a girl version of the card. To do this I changed the little boys romper in the file to the dress from the Baby Girl Dress Card (SVG, Silhouette). To get the size I simply pasted the file on the same page & used the original romper as a guide.

A2 X-Card Baby Elephant

Welcome to a New Year and new week.  A year to create; a year to explore; an exciting time to start something new.

We just celebrated the 1 year birthday of my twin grand baby boys, and we have another baby coming to the family this year.  So I have baby boys on the mind.

I am sharing Lori’s Baby Elephant X-Card today.  (SVG, Silhouette) These X cards are so fun and quick to put together.  Lori has several of these cards in her shop.

 

I hope you enjoy these cards and find some inspiration today.

Baby Bottle Shaped Shaker Card Tutorial

Hello Crafty friends, today I want to share how I made this adorable Baby shaker card!

The file for my project today is the Baby Bottle Shaped Card (SVG, Silhouette).
 
I opened my file in Silhouette studio & took the bottle panel of my file, (coloured in white in my pic), & made a copy so that I now have 2. 
 
One will be used to create a frame for my shaker by making an internal offset & the other I will use to cut a sheet of acetate for the shaker window.

 

I created an internal offset of 0.450 on one of them. You can now put the other, (for the acetate), without the offset to the side. I have slightly enlarged my card so the offset measurements may vary depending on the size of your card. I just kept playing with mine till I got it to the desired size.
 I then copy & pasted this to fill my page. I was able to fit 4 in total. I cut out 12 pieces of this panel. These are to create the frame for your shaker. You only keep the outside frame. The insert is not needed. You will only need to cut 1 frame if you prefer to create the window frame with foam tape. I prefer this way as I find them much sturdier. I then cut out another of the same panel using the printed paper to make the top printed panel. This time keep both the frame & inside cut. Once I cut out all my pieces the first step was to glue the frame together by layering carefully my 12 pieces.
How thick the layer will depend on the type of shaker confetti you use inside. My shaker balls where a little raised & I wanted them to move freely in my card.
Next I glued together my top panels onto the front of my bottle panel & also glued down the shaker frame I created onto the bottom part.
I wanted some embellishments as well as sprinkles in my card, so I adhered some cute stickers on the inside panel first.

 

Once my stickers were in place I took the panel & glued it inside my frame. This should fit perfectly. Then I added my tiny balls. You can use any sprinkles in your stash. I wanted mine to look like milk inside the bottle that is why I chose the white balls. Next I gave my acetate a light brush of powder on the side I was going to glue down so that it is not static. I then glued the acetate to the frame. I let it dry before the next steps. Acetate takes a little longer to dry & not so instant as paper. Once the acetate was dry I glued on top the printed panel frame. Lastly I glued down my complete bottle panel onto the front of the card frame.
I added a sticker with sentiment on top to finish off!

Baby Girl Dress Card Tutorial

Hello Crafty friends, today I want to share how I made this adorable Baby Girl Dress card (SVG, Silhouette).
 
 
I wanted to enlarge the card so I enlarged all my pieces at the same time by dragging the curser until the base of the dress card was large enough & fit inside the cutting perimeter. This will give me a card that will fit into a 6×6 envelope.
I wanted to have a strawberry theme so I took some elements from the Lori Whitlock Strawberry Basket with Strawberry file (SVG, Silhouette). To get a visual I dragged them onto my dress. I kept the strawberry & flower the original size then reduced the vine to fit.
 I also reduced 1 more flower & cut it twice to create the buttons.
I like to make an insert for my cards. I find this also helps to keep my card a little sturdier considering there are more layers on the front. To do this I created an internal offset distance of  0.125 applying the sharp corner.
I then cut out all of my pieces & glued all my panels into place.
This card was so easy & fast to put together! Even with the extra strawberry elements.
I hope you liked my card today.

Baby Word Album

Hello everyone! Traci here and today, I’m sharing a new baby mini album that I made with one of Lori’s fun cutting files titled Baby Word Album (SVG, Silhouette). Each letter is a page with space for your little one’s sweet pictures. This is such a unique shaped mini that would make a wonderful gift or little brag book.

The album consists of 4 pages that layer on top of one another, spelling out the word “baby”. I cut them out of white acrylic but you could also use cardstock instead. Then, I decorated the album with the Echo Park, Special Delivery Baby Boy Collection, also designed by Lori.

I covered the first “B” page in a pretty navy blue print from the 6×6 paper pad, then embellished with a cute giraffe sticker (from the sticker book) and a few puffy stickers.

Inside, I added the yellow 12×12 Baby Boy Signs paper, 2 small photo mats using the navy and cream solids from the collection, and embellished with more stickers.

For the BA page, I covered the B in a light blue solid and the A in the 12×12 pattern that’s the backside of the 4×4 journaling cards. I love the little shooting stars! Then I added a photo mat and a sweet teddy bear sticker.

How cute is the precious paper on the photo mat? Tiny babies napping on the moon and little rainbows. Perfect for a picture of your sleepy newborn.

On the BAB page, I used the navy solid cardstock and a cute footprint pattern called Dream Big Stars. I created a mat using a 3″ scallop circle punch and a 2.5″ circle punch. The fox in the plane, the clouds, and the Hip Hip Hooray are stickers from the sticker book. And, the adorable stork is another puffy sticker.

On the back side, I added the pattern paper called Baby Boy’s Animals that’s filled with cute toys, footprints, and stars. Two more photo mats and a few more stickers finished it off.

On this last page, I used another solid paper and the Welcome Stork gingham print, 3 small photo mats, and lots of precious little stickers. The 2 foxes might be my favorite. So cute!

Here’s a look at the cutting file I used called Baby Word Album …
