Ryan took a THREE-HOUR nap yesterday so I managed to make a couple of cards and work on a scrapbook layout. So here's one of the cards I made:
A baby fox is a kit, right? I think so. Meet this week's Freshly Made Sketch:
I loved Rita's foxy card so I was inspired to dust off Foxy Friends, which I haven't played with nearly enough. Lucky for me, this week's Color Throwdown was foxy as well:
I used Cajun Craze, Always Artichoke, Tangerine Tango, and Pool Party for my colors. I admit I didn't think "baby" when I first saw these colors...in fact, I hadn't decided on a sentiment when I put the rest of the card together. So I just went through my stamps to find a sentiment that would fit right and that "hello, baby" from Baby Bear jumped out at me. (The inside of the card says "welcome to the world!") I thought hey, why not make this a baby card? Honestly, these colors are pretty similar to Ryan's bedding in his nursery and I looooooove all the baby clothes with foxes on them. So baby card!
Ryan and I are heading out in about 10 minutes to do our daily gym time. Cheers, y'all!
Supplies, all SU!
Stamps: Foxy Friends, Baby Bear
Ink: Cajun Craze, Tangerine Tango, Pool Party, Soft Suede, Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: Thick Whisper White, Always Artichoke, Pool Party
Accessories: Layering Circles Framelits (to make a mask), Dimensionals
They've definitely changed the colors for baby clothes. Used to, you'd NEVER see black on a baby. Now it is all the rage. And using more primary colors, too. Yarn for baby blankets hasn't changed so much with the times (in my normal brand), but I have seen some try to sneak in there. For a while, Anne Gedes, I believe, came out with some primary color baby yarn. I only saw it on the shelves for a short while, though.
ReplyDeleteI like your fox! Oh, I found another bear shirt for Ryan that he can wear when he's 3 -- it was on sale and I picked it up. It was also GREEN. Funny! Nice card, Kik!
Sweet sweet card. One of my favorite sets!
