{Spotlight Project} Shirley Creates Baby Backgrounds With Bloomdala Bliss


Hello peeps! I'm currently in baby mode, having just become a grandmother for the first time, although neither of these two cards is for my new grandchild and his parents :)




I thought a couple of the mandalas from Bloomdala Bliss would work nicely as background stamps so I made a pink version and a blue version. I started with the blue one, randomly stamping over the panel, which was going to be trimmed down later.



I die cut elephant and balloon shapes from Distress Oxide smooshed glossy card, tied some embroidery floss around the balloon and attached it to the elephant's trunk. On a separate piece of card I stamped the sentiment from Heaven Sent.


I made a similar background with a different image using pink ink,


then added giraffe and balloon die cuts and a sentiment from Heaven Sent.


Here's what I used:
