Welcome Baby Girl with Karen Reategui
by Karen Reategui on Apr 02 2020
Hello friends! Today I’m over Picket Fence Studios blog sharing how I created this baby card. I’m featuring the Sleeping Baby Stamp and Die and the Fancy Flourish Stencil.
Let’s begin! This card was very easy to create. I stamped the Sleeping Baby stamp using WOW! Embossing Pad and heat embossed it with WOW! Rose Glintz embossing powder. This color of embossing is very similar to skin color so I thought it would be perfect for this baby.
Then, I colored the baby using Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers and die cut it with the matching die. Also, using an oval die I die cut a piece of pink cardstock, placed the Fancy Flourish Stencil on top and applied white ink. I adhered this piece of cardstock to a white card base using glue.
Next, I wanted to create a baby comforter and I was inspired by my little daughter’s comforter she used for her crib. I had this wonderful ruffled ribbon long time ago and thought it was perfect for the comforter. I cut three pieces and glued them to my background, one on top of each other.
Finally, I added the baby using foam tape and heat embossed the sentiment using WOW! Metallic Gold Embossing Powder and placed it on top and this card was finished.
Hope you can get some inspiration with this card. You can change the colors and the ribbon for a baby boy card too. Have a wonderful day!

Hello crafty friends! Today I’m over Picket Fence Studios Blog sharing this floral card with a partial die cutting. I’m featuring the Eiko Girl Stamp and die, Flowers for Picking Stamp and dies, Glass Window Rainbow Die and for my sentiments I used A Pain In My Ass Stamp.
Let’s create the background! I placed the Glass Window Rainbow Die on top of a white cardstock and make a partial die cutting. I added a piece of glitter paper at the back of this panel and then I adhered a white card base using glue.
Next, I stamped the Eiko Girl and Flowers for Picking Stamps onto watercolor paper and applied pink, yellow, skin and brown shades of watercolor. Once my panel is dry, I die cut all the images using the coordinating dies.
Finally, I arranged all the die cuts on top of my panel using glue and foam tape for some dimensions. Added a few iridescent jewels and stamped the sentiments.
Thank you so much for stopping by and have a marvelous crafty day!

Hello friends! Today I’m up at Picket Fence Studios Blog sharing this birthday card using 4 different colors of foils to use with the Picket Fence Studios Happy Day Foiled Impression and Cutting Die. Additionally, for the background I used Points of Interest Stencil and One Year Older Stamp for the sentiment.
Let’s start! I placed the Picket Fence Studios Points of Interest Stencil on top of a white panel and applied Distress Oxide inks using Life Changing Blender Brushes. I removed the stencil and let the panel dry. In the next picture you will see the inks used on this card.
Once the panel was dry, I trimmed down a little bit the edges and adhered a white card base at the back.
Next, using the Gemini Foilpress machine I foiled the Happy Day Foiled Impression Die 4 times with different colors of foil. Then, I die cut all the pieces using the coordinating dies.
I stamped on my panel the Happy Birthday sentiment from Picket Fence Studios One Year Older Stamp Set using Hybrid Black ink and heat embossed it using WOW! Embossing Powder.
Finally, I added all die cuts on top of the background using foam double sided tape and a few sequins and this card was done.
Thank you so much for stopping by and have a marvelous day!!!
