Having one main image with only a sentiment will keep your card CAS.


Clean & Graphic

A limited colour scheme keep things clean!


Clean & Layering



Sweet baby images colored with my Copic markers make for a simple layered baby card.


Shabby Chic


Inspired by the rattle cookie, I created a shabby chic card with an interactive rattle filled with sequins  to welcome a bouncing baby girl!


Freestyle Collage



By using 2 circle punches you get this really cute Pram.

Classy & Elegant

Lee Ann Barrett

I was inspired by the shaped buggy cookie, so fussy cut my traditional image and added lots of layers and pearls.
