Anyway, on to today's card! Last week I was a little bummed that What Will You Stamp? circled back around to a stamp set I actually own, and I was out of town so I couldn't participate. Happily for me, they chose another one I own this week:
Even better, I kinda wanted to make a baby card this week so that's perfect! And here's my new creation:
As it happens, my niece is making her world debut tomorrow afternoon. I think I'll send her the little bunny card I made a while back and hold onto this one; I think this one would work for a boy or a girl just fine. This fits in with the latest SUO Challenge to make a card for any kind of shower, so next time I'm invited to a baby shower I'll be all set. Oh, you totally can't see it in the picture, but I painted over the deer's bow with some Wink of Stella because this card just needed a bit of shine.
I used last Thursday's Create with Connie and Mary sketch:
I left off the skinniest layer behind the main image panel; I thought and thought about what to use for it but it just seemed like that would have been one thing too many for my card so I left it.
My colors today are courtesy of Fab Friday:
Good spring colors, good baby colors and like I said, I think they work for either gender. Woohoo!
Okay, y'all. I'm going to rock-paper-scissors with the dogs to see if I go to the gym or take them for a walk first. Cheers!
