A Baby Card for Gus

Hey Everyone

One of my friends at work asked me to make a baby card for her new nephew Gus.  I came across this really gorgeous card of Paula’s and love how she created the cute little boat – so I’ve CASEd this idea for my card.  Here’s what I came up with:

And I wanted to personalise it so I cut out the letters of his name with my Slice machine for the centre of my card.

I always put so much pressure on myself when I’m asked to make a special card – I hope she likes it! Thanks for taking a look.

Edit to post: I only just checked the colour combo at Dynamic Duo’s this morning (instead of last night when I posted this card) and realised my card qualifies for this their challenge this week which is to create a project with Crumb Cake and One Other Colour.  My card is made with Crumb Cake and Bashful Blue – I hope this is ok to enter???

Cheers

Narelle
