Happy Tuesday, Glad you stopped by. It's not that often that I get to make a baby card, so I had a fun time making this one.
I searched around on the internet for something tiny to make but didn't find much. I finally came across a post on how to make tiny baby booties from a woman in Britain. I didn't have the kind of yarn that she used so I used the thinnest pink yarn that I had.
Even though mine doesn't quite look like hers I do think they turned out pretty cute. I did crochet separate little pieces to make cuffs on the booties.
I have had the circle sentiment with the moon from Stampin Up for several years. It was so nice getting to use it again. Added some Wink of Stella to the moon for some added sparkle.
The pink cardstock is from Coredinations, Pink gingham ribbon is from S.U., Also used a stitched scalloped die and a tiny dot embossing folder and white Cardstock.
I thought I would also share with you a pair of real baby booties that I made to also give to her. I had never made booties before. They did work up fairly quick. These would probably be best for a baby around 3 months.
I think the card and booties turned out pretty cute and I think she will love both. Looking forward to seeing the newest member of our family due in November.
Hope you enjoyed seeing my latest creations and would love for you to leave a comment.
Happy Crafty Day to you all!

Cindy, this card is absolutely adorable! I can totally appreciate it because I too crochet in addition to being a card maker. What a great way to combine two wonderful hobbies. Your great niece will absolutely love it. And I love the booties that you made that the baby will be able to wear. They are so cute and yes, even though it looks like they didn’t take too long to make it does take a lot of talent and I really appreciate that too. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word art Wednesday. We really appreciate you!
