Hello folks! Can you guess what I'm using this card for?
Well, I perused the Bella online store and chuckled when I saw the sentiments that came with this stamp. Yup- two sentiments come with the Daisy Stove stamp. One I used on Mondays card - it's Hot Stuff. The other I used for the inside of this card - "Heard there's a bun in the oven". And that kind of gives it away now doesn't it? Yes, this is a congratulations card for a co-worker that found out she's expecting her first child. And she found out it's a boy so I had to color it in soft blue tones.
I stamped this onto Bella's Bestest paper using Memento Tuxedo black ink. I changed things up a bit though because I colored this with prismacolor pencils blended with gamsol. I went for a quick and easy card too. But you'll find machine stitching, shading with Tim Holtz Distress Ink, rhinestones and a sheer blue ribbon.
Think she'll like it?
See ya on Friday with our Bellariffic Friday sketch challenge.

Cath this is stunning - your shading on the layering piece gives it that shabby feeling which is perfect with the image. HMMMM I don't have this one....
How fun is this?! What a cute take on a baby card - love it! How did you do your sewing so perfectly around that oval? Any tips? :)
