I'm joining in the Just Add Ink challenge which has a theme of family this time. I have a family member who is getting ready to welcome another baby to the family so I wanted to get a head start on having a card ready to celebrate. This was a perfectly timed challenge for me!
Isn't that little baby 'roo in the mama's pouch just so cute?? This was a fun card to put together to make it a little girlie without being too over the top.
I started with a Crumb Cake base then a layer of the Sale-a-Bration Paper Blooms DSP. For a little bit of a different look I offset it to the upper right. Next I added a strip of Rococo Rose Scalloped ribbon.
A Night of Navy square anchors the focal panel. For the gingham panel I first used the Stitched with Whimsy dies on it and then trimmed the excess off from around the stitching.
Next are the kangaroos. I stamped both in Memento black and then colored them with Crumb Cake Blends. Both ears are light Rococo Rose and the bellies are Ivory. After die cutting them I added some little eyelashes to the baby with a Stampin' Write marker as well as a Blushing Bride (close match to the Rococo Rose) baker's twine bow. They are then popped on dimensionals.
For the sentiment I stamped off a Rococo Rose flower from Pretty Perennials and then added the sentiment from the Kangaroo & Company set in Night of Navy and die cut it with the Tasteful Labels dies. It's popped with dimensionals and embellished with a faceted Rococo Rose gem.
Thanks for looking! Did you stamp today?
