It' Tuesday so that means time for another great sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday! Recently a good friend of mine asked me to make a baby card for a friend of hers that just had a sweet baby girl. I had been waiting for just the right opportunity to finally ink up my Packed for Everything Stamp Bundle (from the Occasions Mini Catalogue). So for this card the obvious choice was to use the Packed for Baby single stamp.
Now of course I created this sketch a while ago, and went from memory when I made my card. Apparently my memory is not that good as I totally forgot about the trio of embellishments on the bottom right corner,lol!
Oh my gosh, I so love these colours together! They just scream spring, fresh and new to me:) The base of the card is Crumb Cake, I then added a strip of Blushing Bride, Wisteria Wonder and Pool Party which all had been embossed using the Adorning Accents Textured Impression Folder. Aren't those hearts just too cute!? For the main image I stamped it on Watercolour Paper using Stazon Ink. To watercolour it I used an Aqua Painter and several different Ink Pads. For the sentiment I used one from the very versitle set Friendly Phrases and inked it up using my Basic Black, Wisteria Wonder, Blushing Bride and Pool Party Markers. To finish it off I added a Daffodil Delight button (from the Brights Designer Buttons) that had been threaded with some Island Indigo Baker's Twine.
We would love to have you join us this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday and be sure to check out all the awesome inspiration that the rest of the Design Team has come up with.
Have a great day!
Very cute! Love all the texture!And your right the colours just scream spring! Thanks for another fantastic sketch!

This card is a good argument for why Blushing Bride should NEVER retire! Very cute!
