Clear and Simple Stamps Baby Collection


Hey there!

After so many quiet weeks on my blog, I'm guessing you are a bit surprised to see me back with another post today!

Well, I hope you'll like what I've created!

I've had so much fun playing with the new Clear and Simple stamps collection and I've especially loved the extensive collection of dies that have just been released!

Today, I have three cards to share, each showcasing die cuts from the Baby Shower and Large Baby Shower die collection. These two die sets are sized to perfectly coordinate with each other - as you'll see!


First up, is a duo of cards that I made using the birdy images. I die cut several of the large bird to create a faux-debossed background. Then I popped up one of the die cuts and removed a piece using the small bird die.

I love the clean and modern layout of this card as well as the suggestion of pregnancy by nesting one die cut within the other.

I chose a sentiment from Baby Sentiments to coordinate with the theme of this layout.
 



My next card pairs the elephant die cuts from Baby Shower and Large Baby Shower. To give the elephants a bit of life, I cut out ovals to make ears! Such a simple touch that adds so much!

A sliver of green cardstock peeks out above the sentiment to add a little color to this otherwise neutral color palette.


I hope you like these cards as much as I do! 

Thanks for stopping by today! See you tomorrow for another fun post!
