Baby Boutique It's A Girl Card!

Photobucket

Well, it seems as if we are in a time machine and it's back to April 15's Hello Thursday.  Due to circumstances beyond my control, we are re-launching last month's Hello Thursday projects.  Don't remember what they looked like?  Head over HERE to see all the goodness (17 projects!).

Photobucket
Today's new 5" card was made using the new Cricut Imagine Art Cartridge, Baby Boutique
cartridge combined with the Cricut Cartridge, 3 Birds - Life's a Party cartridge.




The card shape is from the Cricut Life's A Party cartridge (see above under the card feature key).  I used the card under the card feature key and then the shaped sections are right above it under the shift Base and Layer feature keys.  The card was cut at 5".  The card layers were cut at 4" and 4-1/4".

Photobucket
The "It's A Girl" shape was cut at 2" and layered on top of a 2-1/4" section from the same shape.
Papers are from the Cricut Teresa Collins Baby Boutique cartridge also.

Photobucket
Popping up the card sections give the card some depth and elegance.  I just love that look!

Photobucket
I love this sweet baby sentiment ("little precious hugs") from Emma over at My Creative Time - this set is called All Star Baby and all the stamp images are shown below. My photography doesn't do the stamp justice - it's just too cute!


June Hello Thursday promises to be a doozy so don't be too disappointed in this month - more time to save up!
