BABY BOY

 
I have seen various cards made with this "starburst" type of design and thought it would be so fun to make one using papers from various paper pads that I have.  I had just purchased an Echo Park Paper Co. pad in Des Moines and decided to use designs from it.  (Bundle of Joy Boy 6 x 6 paper pad)
 
You can see the final inspiration for my card here.  To get the triangular shaped pieces, Bonnie told me to "cut pieces 4" x 1 1/2" and then cut them in a paper trimmer , opposite corner to opposite corner."
 
The cute little elephant was stamped and then cut with a coordinating Hero Arts stamp and die.
 
Thank you for stopping by!
