Handmade Baby Card Using the Cricut

November 4, 2015 by Pam Larmore 11 Comments

A Handmade Baby Card is so much fun to make and also a welcome gift to new parents!  From the pretty pastel papers and buttons to the sweet animal die cuts, they remind me of when my kiddos were babies…..and that was a LONG time ago!
This sweet baby boy card uses the New Arrival Cricut Cartridge and Everyday Paper Dolls Cricut Cartridge. This card has an airplane pulling a personalized banner, train engine with cards, train tracks, and a car with an adorable giraffe poking out his head. There are lots of layers, details, and embellishments on this awesome card!

A friend messaged me about making a Handmade Baby Boy Card for a shower with a Planes, Trains, and Automobiles theme.  I immediately had an idea of what I wanted to make.

There’s something about a special request that really gets my creative juices flowing!  However, if you’re the creative type, you know that turning an idea that’s in your head into an actual project is often a struggle.  It took five hours to craft this Handmade Baby Card, but I absolutely love the result!

This card has an airplane pulling a personalized banner, train engine with cards, train tracks, and a car with an adorable giraffe poking out his head. There are lots of layers, details, and embellishments on this awesome card!

I used a plane, a train, and an automobile to create a scene. Pop Dots and lots of tiny embellishments add tons of detail to this baby card.

I thought it would be cool to personalize this Handmade Baby Card by putting the last name in the airplane banner.  It took a lot of trial and error to get the sizes and placement of all of the shapes just the way I wanted them.  When I was finished, I had a whole pile of die cuts that weren’t the right color, size, or were facing the wrong direction!

Two punches create a great backdrop for the “Welcome Baby” sentiment. It really makes the sentiment stand out.

Isn’t that giraffe just the cutest thing ever? I added brown ink and wiggle eyes so that he would stand out. I had to use the Flip Feature so he was facing the right direction.
