Precious baby Jemima.....


I was commissioned to make this card by the mother of a premature baby, who wanted a special card to give to her husband. The brief was pink, with the exact wording that I put on the card, a blank area to write her own special message and above all the card needed to be special, something that couldn't be bought in the shops. Apparently the client had scoured all the card shops and couldn't find anything suitable. I believe that she was 'chuffed' with the end result!
I used a crossover card,a heart MS punch and papers from Jendenink Craftworks in Stubbington. I cut the pram from silver mirri and white Bazzill cardstock and added pearl details. I cut 'JEMIMA' from pink glittercard and adhered the letters with foam pads. I cut the letters & flourish from white cardstock and adhered them flat. I added 3 punched hearts. I covered the back of the card with cloud-effect pink paper (in a pack of 4 colours from The Works) and added a white panel trimmed with an MS punch.
Carts used:
Pram & flourish- Heritage
'JEMIMA' & remaining sentiments-Lyrical Letters (Jumbo font)
Thanks for looking!
