I absolutely love shutter cards - eversince I received a gorgeous one on my birthday (thank you Max - still treasuring it) I have been fascinated by them. I really thought they would be hard to do, but no they are really easy peasy and just so much fun to decorate.
This is a new baby card I made using one of the Lofty stamps from the Lofty Celebrations set by Joanna Sheen. As well as the main character in the set you get the little teddy, some sentiments and the oh so cute teething ring. All perfect for using on a shutter card as it gives you extra bits to fill the spaces.As well as the stamps I used punched hearts in three sizes and the 'It's a boy' sentiment was cut on my Cricut machine.
The verse on the middle panel is a gorgeous quote stamp from a set by Cloud Nine design - such amazing words...
'The birth of your baby, a gift from above, will bring JOY to your life when showered with LOVE'.
My card to celebrate the birth of a new baby is for the challenge at Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge and for the challenge of 'folding up' at Daring Card Makers.Have a great day everyone. Think I'm in the mood for making a Halloween card today, but maybe I should be thinking along the line of flowers and birthdays seeing as my Mum's birthday is only a week away!!

Hi Ann, you've won my Christmas Blog Candy, please follow my name above to my profile on blogger and look on the left for my email (email link) send me your address so I can send you the blog candy ! Well done ! I just posted about it on my Fab's Big Christmas Cards Challenge blog !
Well done Ann :-)
As you know I had a go at making one after seeing Max's goregous creations :-) I too thought they would be difficult - so pleased I got over my fear and had a go. Your finished card Ann is truly goregous!
I urge others that have not yet tried a Tri-Shutter card to have a go - you will be surprized at how fairly easy they are.
