Good morning and welcome to another edition of Cards and Creations by Lori McBride. My name is Lori McBride and I’m a Stampin’ Up Independent Demonstrator.
Today I’d like to share with you a card I created using the Baby Pull Toys Stamp Set from our *NEW* January-June Mini Catalog.
As I mentioned, I’m not quite a grandparent yet but plenty of my friends are and plenty of the kids that my kids grew up with are becoming parents. This stamp set was just too precious and it’s going to be great to have just a few baby cards on hand as we share in their excitement of their precious little ones.
I’d been hoping and praying for a while that Stampin’ Up would release something that said “It’s a boy” or “It’s a girl” so you can imagine how pleased I was when I saw that this Stamp Set included those precious sentiments in it.

I started by die cutting all of the Basic White and Basic Black Cardstock with my Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine.
I stamped the pull toy images in Momento Black Ink and hand colored them with my Stampin’ Blend Markers.
I cut and scored the Just Jade Cardstock using my Stampin’ Trimmer. I adhered the pull toys and the black matte pieces down with Stampin’ Seal Adhesive.
Using my Stampin’ Blend Markers I created stripes on the piece of Basic White Cardstock and also adhered it down with the Stampin’ Seal Adhesive.
I needed a stronger adhesive for the Just Jade Cardstock with the baby pull toys so I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue and held it down just a minute or so until the glue set.
I made a bow with the Misty Moonlight Ribbon and used a couple of Mini Glue Dots to secure it.
I created the banner using a scrap piece of Basic White Cardstock and stamped the “It’s a Boy” sentiment in Misty Moonlight Ink. I added a couple of Stampin’ Mini Dimensionals to the back and popped it up to secure it.
The inside base is also a piece of Basic White Cardstock measuring 4″×5 1/4″. I simply stamped the “heartstrings” sentiment in Misty Moonlight Ink and then stamped the stars in Momento Black Ink and hand colored them in with my Stampin’ Blend Markers.
Thank you so much for joining me today. I hope you’ll join me again soon for another edition. Until next time – Happy Stampin’ Everyone!
