Mary's Corner - Baby Ryan's Birthday Card and Gift Tag

Pin It


My little baby nephew Ryan turns one soon and I found the neatest handmade baby toys for him on Etsy!  A Crinkle Sensory Toy from IcingOnTheCupcake (http://www.etsy.com/shop/IcingOnTheCupcake) and a Ribbon Play Ball from MamaMade (http://www.etsy.com/shop/mamamade).  I love supporting independent crafters and I love that the toys are special, one-of-a-kind, and made with love.

Of course I had to make a special card and gift tag!  I'm really happy with how these came out!  They look so gentle yet playful.  I used the DCWV Nana's Nursery Baby Boy Paper Stack and coordinating cardstock.

Ryan's Birthday Card

This card base comes from our Sweet Designer Collection and it's perfect for using one large element with three smaller repeating elements.  I played around and really liked it with the boat and birds.  As long as you use coordinating paper and cardstock, it's going to look great!  Using paper all from one pad or stack makes coordination so easy.  For some pizazz I added yellow brads to the dotted paper and I just love it!  Don't forget to rub a brown ink pad around the edges of each shape to add the final touch!  And of course 3D Zots underneath the birds and boat to add dimension.

Ryan's Gift Tag

I used an average-sized tag with his four-letter long name, but if the name you're using is longer, you can use a longer tag, such as tags 13 or 14 from our Tags Galore Collection. I used 3D Zots underneat each letter for more dimension and added a pretty coordinating ribbon that I just got from the dollar ribbon bin at Michaels.
