SBTD Something Old & Something New Blog Hop

Welcome to the SBTD Something Old & Something New Blog Hop. This month we are sharing ideas and projects to help you pair up new products from the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog with old favorites that have carried over from past catalogs. 
 My card design today features the new Wildly Happy Cling stamp set (item #149408) paired with the Layering Circles Dies (item #141705) and Stitched Shapes Dies (item #152323) from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. I thought it would be fun to pair a new stamp set with some old favorite die sets.
 My card base was created from Rococo Rose cardstock, one of the new 2019-2021 In Colors. It works beautifully with Very Vanilla and Blushing Bride cardstock. I embossed the layer of Blushing Bride cardstock using the Tufted 3D Embossing Folder to create a quilted look to the background. 
The bunnies image has been stamped onto a Very Vanilla cardstock circle die cut using the dies from the Layering Circles Dies. I stamped the image with Early Espresso Classic ink and colored the background and inside of the ears using the Stampin' Blends Markers. I layered the colored image onto a circle of Very Vanilla cardstock that I punched out using the 2 1/4" Circle Punch and then layered it onto a circle die cut from Blushing Bride cardstock using the Stitched Shapes Dies. The last layer was created from Rococo Rose cardstock using one of the Scalloped Circle dies from the Layering Circles Dies. I attached the image to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. 
The sentiment was stamped with Rococo Rose Classic ink onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock and punched out using the Story Label Punch. Using the Rococo Rose Light Stampin' Blend Marker,  I colored a piece of the Very Vanilla Lace Trim and attached it to the card front. I attached the sentiment label on top of the lace using Stampin' Dimensionals. To embellish the sentiment, I colored two of the smallest Basic Pearls with the Rococo Rose Light Stampin' Blends Marker and attached them to the label. 

I love the soft and pretty look to this card design and I think it makes a wonderful baby card for a little girl. By changing the colors for this card, you could create a card design suitable for a baby boy or keep it neutral so that it isn't gender specific. 
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today and I hope that my card design helps inspire you to mix and match your old favorites with some new products from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. If you live in the U.S. and do not already have a demonstrator, please contact me and I would be happy to help you.
