Craft Roulette 6th Anniversary Hop with Trinity Stamps

Hello friends!  Today I am participating in a Trinity Stamps YouTube Hop celebrating Craft Roulette's 6th Anniversary.  Six years - Wow!  Congratulations to Mary Funn Gunn and Craft Roulette.  

This parameters for this week are:

• Project - Tri-fold Card
• Colors - Garden
• Element - Nursery
• Random - Star(s) or Starry

I didn't have a lot of baby to pull from, but luckily the January release had a couple of baby themed stamps in the Nugs & Kisses Stamp Set.  There is also a coordinating die set.

I used Copic markers to color in my little nugget family in the following colors:

• Y08, Y19, YR23 - Cheese Sauce
• Y26, YR23, YR24 - Nuggets
• R14, R27, R39 - Heart

The base of my card was cut to 8.5" x 5.5".  I scored it at 2.24", folded the 2" in and then butted the folded edge up to the left side of my Score Buddy.  I scored it again at 4.25" and folded the left side into the middle of the card.

I also used the stamp for the sentiment for the inside of the card.  The panels for the inside of the cards are cut to 4.0" x 5.25" and 3.75" x 5.0".  

I used the Simply Sentimental: Baby Stamp Set and the 5-Star Rating Stamp Set to make my own "patterned" paper for the front of the card.  Instead of using a colored embossing powder, I used a clear powder, which gave me the tone on tone.  

I cut the cardstock pieces for the side panels at; 2.0" x 5.25", 1.75" x 5.0" and 1.5" x 4.75".  Once they were cut, I glued the layers together.  

The medallion in the center of the belly band was cut using the Emergency Card Essentials #1. I used that die set to cut out the center piece and the trim on the band. I used the 5-Star Rating Stamp Set to stamp the stars on the band.  They were also heat embossed with clear embossing powder.

Oh my goodness, this card turned out so stinking cute!  It is such a break from the more traditional new baby card don't you think?

Happy Anniversary to Craft Roulette and I look forward to many more challenges is the future!

Cheers!
