Kanga & Roo might be my favorite Classic Pooh duo 🧡

For this card, I wanted something sweet and storybook-inspired. I paired the Kanga & Roo dies with soft florals, a shimmer heart balloon, and the sentiment “How do you spell love?”—because honestly, it couldn’t be more perfect.

One of my favorite details is Roo floating just a bit higher on the balloon string, like it’s lifting him right up. Tiny details like that really bring these characters to life.

🎥 This card is part of my latest YouTube video featuring the new Classic Pooh releases

Do you prefer Roo tucked into Kanga’s pouch—or separate like this?

This baby carriage card might be small, but it’s packed with the sweetest details 💛

I used the new Baby Accessories dies from the Classic Pooh Collection Spellbinders Paper Arts to create this soft pastel baby carriage, complete with shimmer wheels and little Roo tucked in the back. Using shimmer cardstock instead of foam tape was a simple way to add shine without bulk, perfect for delicate die cuts like this one.

This card came together quickly and would be so easy to customize in different colors for baby showers, new arrivals, or even keepsake cards.
