This was a fun card to make inspired by Kelly Acheson.
I purchased the CAPTURING SMILES Bundle because I knew it would be great to have for my scrapbooking, but I also wanted to find some cards to make as well. I was immediately drawn to this layout by Kelly Acheson.She showed how you can personalize the card by adding some photos. And what is cuter than this little guy! Our 5 year old grandson, Liam.
I knew that not all my stampers would want to add a photo so I pulled out a retired alphabet stamp set (ALPHABEST) for the #2, and the rest of the alphabets were die cut from the MINI ALPHABET DIE.Stamp Sets: Capturing Smiles bundle & Words & Wishes stamp set
Colors: Coastal Cabana Basic Black & White
Other: Eyelet Blooms Die, rhinestones
Measurements used:
black base 11 x 4-1/4, scored at 5-1/2, 3-5/8 x 3-5/8
basic white 4 x 5-1/4 (x2) and a scraps for the die cutting
coastal cabana 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 and scraps for the die cuts
