Little Duckling Baby Card

Happy Friday everyone!  I have a baby card today that is adorable and goes together in a snap!

I love ducks and I couldn't resist this little guy with his sweet face.  Technically this is a Mother's Day die but since Mother's Day has passed I thought a baby card might be in order.

I started with an A2 card base and then cut the rectangles using a dot patterned paper.  I thought it went well with the circles, but you could use any pattern.  I cut the circles in coordinating colors.

For the inside I cut the largest rectangle from the set.  I cut a full set of ducks from So Saffron card stock.

Using the Y26 Copic marker, I colored in the duck bills and one set of feet.   I wanted my outside ducks to be swimming, so they did not get feet.

I glued one duckling to the inside panel and the other one and his mama to the circles to form medallions.

I glued the rectangles to the outside front about an eighth inch from the sides and top/bottom.  The outside sentiment is heat embossed and the inside sentiment is stamped.

My last step was to glue it all together.  This card was simple to make but so cute.  And it is flat which makes for easy mailing!  Ducks are gender neutral so this can easily be changed to a feminine card by changing the colors.

Dies used:  Cottage Cutz Mama Duck and Duckling, Double Stitched Rectangles, Double Stitched Circles
Stamps: MFT Essential Sentiments
