Baptism Card

I got an order for a Baptism Card, and it ended up like this bib card... ;) I got the inspiration from Debbie.

I've used the Grand Calibur Nestabilities Scalloped Dies from Spellbinders to make the bib. :)
I made a small roll that leaves room for a money gift. Below the roll, you can write a personal greeting. :)

I've decorated the bib with a ribbon and cute metal charms.

Materials:
Stamps: Stempelglede - Velkommen lille venn, North Stamps - tekst
Patterned Paper: Melissa Frances - Betty Ann
Spellbinders Dies: Grand Calibur Scalloped Ovals, Petite Oval Scallop LG, Petite Oval LG
Embellishments: Metal Charms, ribbon, flowers.

  

By the way I was very surprised when I received a pleasant email from Eva at StampARTic last week. She told me that my Tilda-card has been chosen to the Walk of Fame of June at StampARTic. What an honor! Thank you ! ♥

This is a DT project for Unik Hobby. I've made a birthday card, that is tied together with two floral sticks...

This cute image of Tilda is colored with Prismacolor Premier.

Inside the card, I've made a  pocket that holds a gift card. The beautiful patterned paper is from Pion Design. I love those papers. The textstamps I've used are from one of the newest collection from Norsk Stempelblad.
