Isn’t this such a cute set for a simple, yet effective, card!
This card is actually double size – an A4 card folded in half. So . . how do you fill such a big space when the stamp you want to use is relatively “small”??
First I triple matted the image, graduating the mat size to make the image’s visual footprint bigger.
Next I opted to use a very wide ribbon and also some large brads. The build a brads were the perfect thing!
I learned when I was quilting lots to make borders when you needed to make a big quilt out of a small squares. That technique works well for cards, too!
Our biggest congratulations to Anna Sutherland of Invercargill who had a beautiful baby boy recently! A group of us signed this card for her – a small token of our happiness for your new addition.

this was an awesome card in real life & I’ll be using the concept the next time I need a baby card for work (i.e. lots of bods)
