I hope you have all had a lovely Saturday.
My afternoon was spent with a lovely new "happy couple" followed by a little shopping trip for baby goodies ahead of visiting a sparkly, shiny new baby boy tomorrow.
So tonight I needed to make a little card to go alongside my baby goodies and to welcome a lovely new person into our world.
This used:
Image: Digistamp Boutique
Sentiment: Computer Generated
Backing Papers: Wild Rose Studio
Martha Stewart Punch: Traditional Scallop
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
My Trusty Sewing Machine
ProMarkers (chalk for the rosy cheeks).
Ribbon from the Stash Box
Laura asked me the other day what colour Promarker I use to shade the cheeks of my little characters. Well actually I don't use my markers for those .. .. I use my chalks as I haven't managed to master the technique with my markers unfortunately.
I am also going to enter this card into the Digistamp Boutique customer competition for March.
OK time for supper and a sit down with my lovely hubby.
I will catch you again tomorrow with my snippet make and a report on how super cute and cuddly baby Matthew was!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Love

What a lovely little card for baby Matthew James, Jules & such a sweet image. Is he a new member of your family or friends? Thanx for the comment on my "playset" post. I'm lucky 'cos Janis comes to get me & drives me home again after, good job too as I looked a right mess by the end of the day!

Hi Jules, what a gorgeous card. I love the papers you've used. Thanks for joining us for our monthly competition over at DSB. Hugs, Denise x
For colouring cheeks I use pastel pink promarker before I blend my last colour (ivory) and I find it takes away any harsh lines - hope this helps :)
