Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are showcasing the eclipse technique. I have made my card using the Lovely Arrangements stamp set and Party Alphabet dies.
Colours used to make this card are:
I created the Eclipse Baby card using the following supplies:
Bubble Bath card base – 8” by 8” – scored at 4”
Lost Lagoon – 7½” by 3½”
Basic White – 7⅜” by 3⅜”
Basic White – 7¾” by 3¾” for the inside
Lost Lagoon – ⅞” by ⅝”
Basic White scrap
Using Secret Sea ink, I randomly stamped the two flowers across the 7⅜” by 3⅜” panel of Basic White card. I added colour to the flowers using the Light and Dark Bubble Bath Blends Pens.

The leaves, from the Fragrant Layers stamp set were added around the flowers with Lost Lagoon ink.

From the decorated panel I cut out the letters BABY using the Party Alphabet Dies, taking care to save all the pieces. The die cut panel was then adhered to the Lost Lagoon layer before it was glued to the Bubble Bath card front.

I die cut 3 more of each letter from scrap Basic White card and glued the 3 letters one on top of the other before adding the decorated letter on the very top.

Each letter was then added into the negative space and the left-over inner pieces of the letters pushed down into the gaps.

The word NEW, from the Reason To Celebrate stamp set was stamped in Secret Sea ink onto the small piece of Lost Lagoon card. This was added to the card front on a Dimensional.
