Welcome! Little one - Handmade Card.

Hello guys
Its all about BABIES this month and I have a handmade card this time to celebrate the arrival of the Little One/s which fill our hearts with love and joy......so here is what I made and this is also my DT inspiration for Lets Craft and Create Challenge blog where the theme is Child's Play all this month. Purple is by far my favorite color and since the baby themed card/ project are usually Blue and Pink, I thought to do something a little out of the box and made a card in my fav color - Purple!

You all can join in the blog challenge which will be running all month by clicking HERE.
Now, back to the card. I started with 270 gsm White cardstock cut to standard A2 size card base. For the front panel, I have used pattern paper from Papericious - Whimsical 6" X 6"paper pack. I have cut the paper to the size 4"by 51/4"and then dry embossed it with Sizzix embossing folder. Later I tied a White satin ribbon on the lower part of the paper and finished it into a cute bow. I mounted this panel on my front of the cardbase using some white fun foam sheet.

I did some die cutting now using Cottage Cutz Baby border die on a Purple cardstock and White cardstock. I mixed the 2 die cuts and adhered it on the front panel above the satin ribbon. To make the center element, I diecut few shapes from white, purple and design papers from the Whimsical collection using Spellbinders Nestabilities Scalloped Labels one, ItsyBisty Nested Stitched Circles and Sizzix basic dies. I added them on the panel using some foam tape to give it a little dimension.
On the center, I added a cute Teddy Bear Sticker from Handmades Sticker collection. I do not have the name as its an old collection and I cannot find it anywhere.

I finished my card with a Welcome sentiment from Mudra craft stamps stamped on a white cardstock with Grape Jelly dye ink from Memento and then matted it with some more design paper in green from the same paper pack. The inside of the card is kept pretty clean. I do not know why its looking so blue in the pictures...in real its Purple and so royal looking...But that's Camera with its own drawbacks.
