New Baby Celebration Card using the Balloon Celebration Stamp Set & Punch Bundle from Stampin Up! UK

Good Day Peeps ... I hope you are having a Good One

Today I have a New Baby Card to share with you all. This could easily be adapted for a baby girl, and even a card for older children, teenagers and even adults, just by switching the inks and Designer Series Paper.

And I have come to really rather love this Super Bundle from Stampin Up!

The Stamp Set and Co-ordinating Balloon Punch, makes this a very versatile stamp set. and the effects you can create are never ending

I have gone with 3 colours in this card

Island Indigo; Tempting Turquoise & Night of Navy

If I were to select inks for girls, it would probably be, Pink Pirouette, Melon Mambo & Rose Red

I have used some Lost L Lagoon Striped Ribbon, and the sentiment was stamped using Night of Navy Ink Pad, and punched out with the Washi Label Punch.

The Designer Series Paper is from the Have A C Cuppa Stack as the colours co-ordinate well with today's colour scheme
