Baby Card for Nephew

My brother welcomed a new little bundle of joy to his family in January.

In order to celebrate the arrival of my newest nephew, I knew I had to make a great baby card.

Not knowing where to start, I began to look for inspiration online, and stumbled upon this layout on the Mojo Monday blog.

With the layout in mind, I set to work, and ended up creating this awesome baby card:


I got to ink up some stamps that I hadn't used before, and I got to use the awesome "Well Worn" patterned paper that I had purchased from Stampin' UP!  I love the end result. 

Looking back at the card now, if there was one thing I could change, I think that I would do some stitching around the edge of the patterned paper.  But other than that, I am extremely happy with the finished product.

Marn, you are the QUEEN of baby cards! Seriously, I think you could open a shop and ONLY sell baby cards and be rich and famous :) Love Myles' card - the stamping on the twill, the papers, the layout - it's awesome!! You're right, stitching around the base would've been a stellar finishing touch, but I honestly wouldn't have thought of it if you hadn't mentioned it. It really looks awesome. Can't wait to see what else you've got up your sleeve!!
