Teeny Tiny Person New Baby Card

Posted on July 29, 2022 by Laura Stark

I have soooooo many pregnant friends right now – it’s kind of crazy – so, I have a lot of new baby cards to make over the next few months.  This one was made with a really fun stamp set from Avery Elle.  It was the sentiments that accompany the image that made me buy the set, and I think it’s made a really cute, clean and simple card.

Supplies I Used

  • Avery Elle Brand New Baby stamp set
  • Time for Tea Designs A2 Nesting Dies
  • Snow Leopard A4 Card
  • Violet Studio Baby 6×6″ Paper Pack
  • Heffy Doodle 8.5 x 11” Coloured Cardstock – Oyster Shell
  • Crafter’s Companion Glue Tape Pen
  • Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad
  • Turquoise and Gold Stickles
  • Copic Sketch Markers

Making the Card

To make this card, I first die cut two rectangles using the Time for Teas A2 rectangle nesting dies.  The largest rectangle was cut from a Violet Studios Baby paper pad, while the smaller one was cut from Snow Leopard A4 card – my favourite card for stamping and colouring.  I then used my stamping platform to stamp the bird and baby image, a couple of hearts, and the sentiment using Memento Black ink.  One thing I really want to mention here is how well the Avery Elle stamps stamped.  I’ve never used this brand of stamp before, and the lines were crisp and perfect – it makes such a difference!

Next, I coloured my images using Copic sketch markers.  I tried to keep my colour choices as minimal as possible, focusing on blue for a baby boy, and keeping the rest peachy and light.  For a bit of added interest, I added Stickles to the bottom of the bag, hearts and crown.  I waited for the Stickles to dry, and then attached my white rectangle to the grey patterned one.

To finish my card, I cut a piece of Heffy Doodle Oyster Shell card stock in half and scored down the middle.  I then attached my card topper to the base with a tape pen.  I also stamped “From Your Crafty AF Friend” (not pictured) – one of the fun sentiment strips from a Cathy Zielske stamp set – to the back of the card.

And there we have it.  A super simple new baby card that looks gorgeous in real life.  I know I keep saying it, but I really need to invest in a light box to improve my photography.

This is probably going to be my last card of 2022 This is probably going to be my last card of 2022 and what a nice way to end it but with a new baby card. Granted the snowflake border is a bit weird but winter baby - I’m going with it.
