Baby XO

I have a new baby card for the challenge at Less is More this week - challenge #322 is to use 3 pastels in your card.



The sweet pastel colours are so traditional for babies, so I was more than happy to use the cute little teddy bear images from the MFT stamp set - Snuggle Bunnies.  Bunnies are the larger images in that set, but I'm trying to use the many small images that can be overlooked sometimes.

The sentiment is by Clearly Besotted and the stitched squares are Stampin' Up! Stitched Framelits.

    This is adorable Ann! The teddy bears are my faves, and perfectly suited to pastels. The three buttons mirroring their colours are a lovely finishing touch. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)

    So pretty. And you used some buttons too! I have a large stash of those (and a friend just gave me some more!).

Wow!  Where has the year gone already?  We will soon be caught up with the 'busyness' of Christmas, summer and holidays no doubt, so I'm happy to welcome you to this month's Blog Hop and Challenge at Scrapbook Boutique - let's have fun while we can! You should have arrived here from  Angela's  amazing blog but if you didn't and want to start at the beginning, just click on the SBB blog link above and start again!   Here is this month's gorgeous mood board, to inspire you!  It may be the butterflies, the colours, the designs - whatever takes your fancy!  I love using butterflies in my cards, so I was very happy with this challenge!  I was inspired by the idea of drifts of butterflies and those lovely pink colours!

Scrapbook Boutique May Blog Hop and Challenge

Welcome to another blog hop and challenge at Scrapbook Boutique - this month it is based on this amazing mood board! You should have arrived here from  Angela's  lovely blog. What a beautiful collection of images, celebrating motherhood, new babies and all things girly! I just love to make 'new baby' cards, and was inspired by the little ballet shoes and dress to embellish my card with the tulle ribbon.  I also loved the metallic letters, but thought silver was a softer option than gold with pink, so kept to the silver dots on my pattern paper, as well as the silver twine.  I created my own background with a little strip of hearts from a Lawn Fawn set called Into the Woods.  Now for a close-up, to catch that sparkle! I hope you are inspired to create something after seeing this mood board and if you do, or if you just want to join in, there are two ways you can participate in this challenge and have a chance to win a prize.  You...
