baby

I made this card for the Bitten by the Bug 2 challenge. We had to use the Pooh and Friends cloud. Once I saw that cloud I thought... baby. I was trying to make the card look soft and wispy like clouds. There are details on the card that you can't see. Such as around the base layer is a soft baby blue inking. I also used embossing glitter to give it a shimmer. I'm really pleased how it turned out.

I been wanting to do a floating card ever since I saw it on My Craft spot. Here is a link to her video.

 I complicated it but if you follow her instructions I'm sure it will turn out. I just winged mine that is why my dimensions are weird.



Here is the inside of the card.



and the sentiment. I love this I found it from a quote book that my mom gave me. Actually from the same book that I used for the last card.
How I did it:
4 3/4 x 6 for base
4 1/4 x 5 1/2 for 1st layer
3 3/4 x 3 3/4 for frame
1/2 inch all away around the frame
cloud and shadow: Pooh and Friends: 1 1/2"
star stamp: basic backgrounds: stampin up!
5 1/2 x 4 1/2 for inside layer
baby blue inking around base
white inking around 1st layer
a la mode embossing powder
