How
adorable would this be for welcoming a sweet new little one? I am always on the
lookout for baby cards that feel fresh, playful, and a little unexpected, and
this one makes me smile from start to finish. It features one of the darling
new stamp and die sets from the latest Trinity Stamps release, and I am
completely smitten with the lacy trim and all those tiny sleepers and bibs. The
precious little “Cutie” detail adds the happiest finishing touch!
My background consists of three layers. The orange cardstock is cut to 5.5" x 4.25". The lacy layer is cut using the Dainty Scallops Rectangles (A2) Die Set. I also used this set to cut out the trim on the little sentiment at the bottom right corner. I used the A-2 Clean Cut Layers - Rectangles Set A to cut the patterned paper and the paper that the sentiment is stamped on.
The Cutie is from the new Hi, Cutie Stamp and Die Set. I used Copic markers in colors similar to the orange cardstock. The sentiment is part of the stamp set. To fill in the blank areas on the card after I glued on the Cutie and Sentiment, I used the stamp set Loads Of Fun, which is part of a Craft Roulette Collection. Now, you can fussy cut the little onesie, or there is a die that works perfectly in the Spin Cycle Die Set, which is also a Craft Roulette Collection Die Set.
To add a little dimension to the card, I popped up the Cutie, bib and onesie with foam dots.

Hi friends! I’m excited to share a cute card
I made with the new Full Circle Collection. I’m loving the products in this
release—from the stencil and stamp sets to the dies. They make creating a
beautiful card quick and easy!
I wanted to create my own paper for this project, so I used
the new Dainty
Dots Stencil. I used Catherine Pooler
Inks in, Sparkling
Berry, Aquatini
and Blue
Raspberry. I used white cardstock as
my base and then lightly blended the color all over the paper and then used one
of the stencils to add additional color to make a beautiful tone on tone print.
For the sentiment and main focus on this card, I used the
new stamp set Gentle
Reminder, along with the new Decorative
Circles Die Set. I stamped this on
another piece of cardstock that I inked
with the Catherine
Pooler Aquatini Stamp Pad. I also
dusted the edges of the circle to add a little dimension to the piece.
For the outer edge of the sentiment circle, I used the new Doilies
& Daisies Circle Dies to cut out white cardstock. I glued these layers together.
Next, I cut the Blue Raspberry colored paper to 5.25” x
4.0”. I used that size because I wanted
to have a small border around my design which would finish at an A-2 size,
which is 5.5” x 4.25”.
To add a sweet embellishment to the bottom right corner of
my card, I used the new Buttons
Die Set to cut out the largest heart button from some of the Sparkling
Berry inked paper. While you don’t have
to put anything in the thread holes of the buttons, I chose to add a piece of
white organza ribbon to enhance the delicate feel of this card. Once I had my heart temporarily placed, I
decided to add a little bit of cotton lace across the bottom. That was exactly what was needed to keep the
soft feel of the card.

I
can almost hear the beautiful Nutcracker score playing when I look at this festive
Christmas in July card! I had so much fun creating it with some adorable Kat
Scrappiness products, and it brings a little holiday magic to the summer
season. From Clara to the Sugar Plum Fairy to the famous Nutcracker himself,
this card feels like a tiny Christmas performance all wrapped up in paper and
sparkle.
I have a video up on my YouTube Channel so you can follow along while I color these little friends. I also show you how I ink blended the background and made the stage look like wood planks!

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you will find a little inspiration from my process video:
It is the 20th of the month so that means it is Crafty Al's Oh So Inspired You Tube Hop. This is the card that I came up with based on a card created by Veronica S or @simple_stamper. I loved how she placed the circles along the right side of her card. I also like that she used a die to cut out a design and then incorporated it back in the design. I also really liked that the sentiment was inspirational.
For my card, I went bold on the colors and switched the die cut from the circle to another die cut.
