Over the Moon baby card

  • To make this card start with the background ink blend from the top persian blue and juniper mist then move down to the royal treatment and razzleberry.  Then very light pressure on the bottom 1/4 with all the colors very lightly.  Then I used the altenew metallic watercolors and splattered the white all through the background. Let dry. Next I worked on the moon and used the four stencils. Stencil one I used caribbean sky, stencil 2 Persian blue, stencil 3 sapphire, and stencil 4 dark night. I die cut the moon with the Honey bee sweet stacks circles and cut 2 more to layer.  Stamp shower of blessing in the middle of the moon with versamark and emboss with silver embossing powder.  Die cut the stork out of the silver matt card stock. The wing out of grape soda card stock. The wing tips, legs, beak, hat, and bag out of the flanders blue paper.  The baby out of blush blossom paper. Stamp congratulations below the baby and emboss in silver. Then attach stars throughout the sky and put the stork and baby together.
