Easy Layered Baby Cards

 Today I’m sharing this adorable layered baby card featuring the sweetest little elephant from Pajama Crafter Stamps! I paired the image with soft spring plaid papers and layered die cuts to create a cheerful design perfect for welcoming a new baby.



Card Base

The card starts with a scalloped, die cut card base. A piece of paper from the Spring Plaid 6×6 Paper Pack is cut slightly smaller for matting.



Stamping & Die Cutting

Next, I stamp the cute elephant from Savanna Babies Stamps, color with Prismacolor pencils and fussy cut.


More die cutting is done for the card layering to include 4 banners using the Banner Die Set and 2 circles. One cut with the Circle Peek A Boo Die and a smaller one cut with a stitched die from my stash.



Putting it all Together 

I adhere the 4 banners to frame the focal point and give the card lots of dimension and movement.



For the center, the Circle Peek A Boo Die cut creates a delicate frame behind the sentiment, stamped on the white circle die cut.





The soft green layer helps the sweet baby elephant image stand out while keeping the design light and playful. I finished the card with a few Daffodil Confetti Embellishments for a touch of shine and extra sweetness.



I love how the soft pastel colors and sweet elephant create such a happy, welcoming feel. This design would be perfect for a baby shower, new baby gift, or nursery décor inspiration.
