At long last a day off!! Yeah maybe I will be able to catch up with some of the challenges I have missed. It feels so strange not to be posting a card for The Pink Elephant. I did pop over there this morning though to have a peek at everyone's work. Wow check out Lori's new stamps - totally the cutest ever!
My card today is one I sneaked enough time to do between shifts. Laura needed a card for one of her work colleagues who very inconsiderately had a boy (I have two baby girl cards in my box!).
The card is larger than the normal foolscap size. I was lucky enough to be walking past my local card shop as they were throwing a lot of old stock out. They were kind enough to let me rummage through the bag and salvage the good envelopes. Doing things like this makes my daughters despair of me, but hey I got tons of beautiful envelopes for free!
The large envelope allowed me to use the baby words Cuttlebug folder without trimming any of the words off which was good. As you can see I used Swiss Dots at the bottom of the panel with ribbon inbetween. The stamped baby tree image is a stamp I've had some time and I can't remember the maker, but it is a cute one.
Luckily my card fits the following challenges...
- Fab 'n' Funky - No designer paper
- Pile it on - Boyish Colours
Have a great start to the week everyone.
