Oh, baby!



Happy Saturday! Hope everyone had an uneventful "Friday the 13th" yesterday...

I needed a card for a baby boy, so I grabbed my trusty Purple Onion Design noteblock and a paired it with a baby digi from Digistampcharacters. Love the noteblocks--I own about 6 of them!--and they make for a quick card every time.









After I took a shot of the baby in the sitting position, I used some Un-Du and removed him, then placed him in a "sleeping" position, just to see what it looked like.

Showed the card to my hubby and he said it looked like the baby was doing ab crunches so I put him back, seated.

Will FINALLY send this card off to a dear friend's daughter in Arizona....

Thanks for visiting today! Hope you all have a great weekend!

Stamps: Purple Onion Designs, Digistampcharacters
Ink: Colorbox
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink, Hero Arts notecard
Other: Copics, Sharpie white poster paint pen, Un-Du adhesive remover

  2. Wonderful cards (as allways) since my last visit to your blog. I haven´t been in the mood for card making since I came back from holiday hope it will come back to me ;0) It has been hard starting job after 4 weeks break and when I come home I just enjoy the sun and visit my friends. So for now I just enjoy my blogfriends creations!
    Big hug Sanne
