It's a Girl

How cute is this. I found a picture of a onsie and blew it up and printed it out. Then traced it and cut it out on the Pretty in Pink card stock. Then I attached it to the back and I have a shape card that is appropriate for the baby shower. I trimmed it with the Regal Rose marker to give it some definition and attached that cute little heart on the chest using the heart to heart punch, which is now retired. I also ran it through the Big Shot with the adorning accents Embossing Folder. I drew the trim by free hand, with pencil first, then with the marker. Erased the lines with a white eraser. I also put three brads, from the subtles collection, accross the flap to make them look like snaps The shower is  on Sunday. I haven't been to a baby shower in a while. My friends are all becoming grandparents instead of parents these days. I am very happy with how this turned out.

Stamping 411 Challenge SSC258 Round not Square

Every Friday night Stamping 411 puts up it's Saturday Sketch challenge. Usually I start thinking about what I'm going to do right away but I have a lot of things going on right now. Other projects keeping me very busy so today I finally got to really look at what the sketch was about and finally an idea really just popped into my head. I have been wanting to make a circle shaped card and I knew I wanted daisies on it. Several weeks ago on splitcoaststampers the inkling was making shaped cards and I used that technique here. After I put together the white circle with the daffodil delight dsp and the regal rose scallop I was afraid running it through the Big Shot with the embossing folder would ruin the look but it just enhanced it. I think adding the little green leaves was just the final touch to really set off the pink flowers. I am thrilled with the way this card turned out. Please let me know what you think. 

Thanks for stopping by At Paula's Place and taking a look.
