I made my husband pick out his favourite of the two because I couldn't decide. I think I like this one better, but I hate the way the black sentiment looks so stark against the pastels of the prams. If I wasn't going to overlap the sentiment I would have it in a similarly muted shade.
To get it centered I used my centering ruler to work out the middle of the card, drew a little mark for it, and then drew a line horizontally where I wanted the pram's wheels to rest. I then made sure that my pink pram was stamped according to the vertical centre (as well as the horizontal line I had drawn) and stamped the other two prams on either side.
Size of card: 3.5" square

Card/paper - Quill white cardstock
Stamps - Cre8tive, Inkadinkado sentiment

Tools - Fiskars paper trimmer
Whilst on an overlapping tangent I also made this card:

The above card uses a stamp I made myself using an eraser, my fiskars shape cutter and a utility blade. There are squillions of tutorials for this sort of thing on the web. Here's one I found helpful.
