Prego Card

We made this card at a class I did a few weeks ago. I think it will be a fun card to give to the next person that I find out is pregnant. This card has NO layers, but the cut-0ut on the front makes it fun.
Supplies used:
How Swell R-2025
Spring Dream T-2688
Circle Sampler T-2691
Ordinary Greetings T-2881
Palette inks: Giverny Green, Claret
Kaleidacolor: Spectrum
1 3/8" circle punch
Crop-A-Dile
ribbon
Gelly Roll clear glitter pen
white cardstock
Directions:
Stamp images on front of card. Punch circle and stamp "Oh Baby!" on the inside layer. I used the clear glitter pen on the butterfly and the inside of the flower on the lady's hat--this pen is great for adding just a touch of glitter here and there without any mess! I made what I call a No Bow, on the top of the card by punching a hole about 1" in from each end along the crease. Then take 16" of ribbon and insert each end from the top to the inside of the card, cross and come back up through the holes, pull snug, and trim.
