Baby Bundle by Soph

Posted on: Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

baby bundle 020 copy

ETA: I had someone ask where I got this idea… there are about 3 stamp companies that have baby bundles out: Stamping Bella, C.C designs and another that I can’t remember.  This is where I got this particular idea.  Most of my idea’s come from wanting to make something and seeing how I can do it with the shapes that I have. Hugs, Sophie

This weeks tutorial is another baby project.  For those who have no need of baby stuff right now…don’t worry, I will be back next week with a punch project which is not infant related lol.  For everyone else, I hope you enjoy!  This card and box combo is showing a baby bundle ( the type the stork brings in ) hanging from a clothing line.  I would have loved to have had those mini clothing pins that you can get at the dollar store, but alas, I have none.  I am going to try get some on my next outing.

Tutorial
baby bundle 002
Start by taking your 5-Petal Flower punch, 3/4″ circle punch and your Wide Oval punch.  Punch one of each shape using So Saffron for the flower and oval, and Blush Blossom for the circle.

baby bundle 003
Cut off 2 petals together, discard the other 3.

baby bundle 006
Cut the bottom of your wide oval so that it is fatter and rounder.  If you are doing multiples then make a master and trace the alterations on to each consecutive wide oval.

baby bundle 007
Sponge all your pieces, the So Saffron with Curry, or Dusty Durango, and the Blush Blossom with Creamy Caramel.

baby bundle 009
Glue the two petals to the back of the wide Oval as shown in picture.

baby bundle 011
With you black marker (fine point), add eyes to the circle.  With a sponge dauber, sponge on some Rose Red Stampin Pastels on the cheek area then add three gel pen dots per cheek for highlights.

baby bundle 015
Adhere the baby face to the bundle using a Stampin’Dimensional.  Next add highlights to the bundle.  You are done.

Just adorable! We just found out that our niece is expecting so I am on the hunt for great baby ideas – this will be a definite contender!!
thanks for sharing!

24

*swoon*

I almost want to have babies so that i can send this to myself!

How is it possible you guys just keep getting better and better?

25

Super duper cute idea! I had to laugh though, because when I first looked at them I thought they were piggies! The faces of the babies are the noses and the hair is the pig’s eyes and the ties on the bundles are the ears. You know, one of those things where I see a woman and you see a vase? Anyway, they ARE super cute baby bundles!!!

26

So cute! Somebody I know better get preggers so I can do this!!

27

Oh my these are the cutest little things. They have to be my favorite punch art item, just absolutely adorable. I cannot wait to case this one for sure. Thanks so much for sharing your amazing talents.

28

OMG these are adorable! I’ve been gathering punch ideas for the past 4 days because I want to make a reference book of all of them. This is definitely going in the front of the book! Thanks!

29

OMG! My jaw is laying on the floor…………..this is adorable…you two girls are the bomb!

Hugs,
Di

31

47

This is so cute! Don’t be mad, but at first glance …I saw 3 little piggies (the heads looked like the snout and the tie at the top looked like ears)…..but it still looked really cute!

48

This has to be the CUTEST baby card I have ever seen. Love it. Thank you for sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
