Hiya crafty friends,
A good friend of ours is going to be a grandmother for the first time, so I wanted to make a special card for her. I found this site and fell in love her card. So I decided to have a go myself with my trusted Silhouette Cameo and my Design Team goodies from Clare Curds Crafts.
Here's how I made it.
I first made some cutting file on my Silhouette Studio software...
Some of which I cut from white card and the others from the Cosmo Cricket -Tea for Two Patterned 6x6 paper pad
I applied some Spun Sugar distress Ink to the edge of all the patterned paper sections...
which where adhered to the corresponding white card sections, as shown below:
Which was then stuck to the card base with foam pads. I really couldn't be with out my foam pads in my craft stash.
I used the same process to add a pocket.
I applied foam dots to the top of the straps and doubled sided tape to the bottom
The final patterned piece was stuck at the bottom of the card.
I added a loop of ribbon to the side of the pocket
and some buttons to the straps
And a bow made cut from another patterned sheet of paper from the Cosmo Cricket -Tea for Two pad
Now that the front of the card was finished, I made a start on a feature for the inside...a nappy!! :)
I used a Silhouette cut file from their store, but altered it slightly to fit the card and also give a a wavy edge.

I embossed the front and side flaps (as shown below) using the Darice Embossing Folder - Circle in circle 5 x 7
The safety pins were cut from white and the pin heads were cut from another patterned sheet of paper from the Cosmo Cricket -Tea for Two pad
I used a silver pen to then colour the pin.
And then stuck them to the side flaps
And adhered to the centre of the card
