For a baby girl

I was invited to be a Guest Designer over at Challenge Up Your Life for their new challenge, which is all about babies. For some reason I don't see my card up on their blog but decided to show you this now on my blog anyway, as it was made with other challenges in mind as well.

I started out picking out a few scrap papers from Maja Design to be used with my "Mini Perfect Patches" die from Memory Box. Then I used dies from Lawn Fawn to make the little hearts and the banner with sentiment, stamped with a Kaisercraft stamp.
The duck, rabbit and rattle are made with Lawn Fawn stamps. I stamped directly onto DP leftovers. I also added one button with a little string bow.

This card is also made with these challenges in mind:
Cards in Envy - Squares
Creative With Stamps Challenge -  #5 Geometric
Inkspirational - #115 Patterned Paper
Dream Valley Challenges - Pink

Hope that in that challenge where you are GD they see the forgetfulness!

MaryH said...

Congratulations on your GD spot! This is absolutely a darling card. Just loving those Maja papers, and don't have any of them. Not any local sources, and the one website that I am aware of having this product, is such a slow shipper, I haven't placed any recent orders. You've used them so well on this cute card! Take care, TFS & Hugs
