A Baptism / Christening for a girl

I love creating special projects with special people and one of my very special friends Yelitza was getting her gorgeous little girl Baptised.  The colours were to be pink and white, so I began to toss around ideas with Yelitza and this is what we created together...

I taught Yelitza how to create the cards and how to dress them.  The cards in a production line...

Instructions
The blushing bride card stock was cut and folded (SEE HERE FOR INSTRUCTIONS).
The dresses were cut out using the framelit and Bigshot.
The tops of the dresses were then embossed and a bow tied around them and stuck onto the card using dimensionals to give the dress a little pop. 
The Whisper White seam binding was crushed and placed across the bottom edge of the card. 
To hide the glue dot in the centre of the card holding the seam binding in place we placed a fabric flower (not Stampin' Up!) and highlighted it with a Rhinestone.

 The gorgeous gift boxes in the production line...

The Dress Up framelit was cut so that the shoulders were the hinge of the gift box - an open box inserted to give support for the base and of course a location for the chocolates :-)...

The back had the thank you on it...oh a hint - stamp before you assemble the box and put it in place!I's so impatient that I forget this simple hint!

How beautiful, it was just purrrfect, excellent as Yelitza says.
If you want a personalised project give me a call, and I would be happy to create something personal for you, or if I can give you more detail book a class with me and I can teach you how to create such a gorgeous spread for your special occasion.

Yours in paper craft,
