Baby Card from Artiste Birthday Girl Key for Rose Blossom Garden Challenge #4

I've been pondering entering this challenge for the past week but just couldn't come up with a good idea.  Today I was asked to make a baby card and I got inspired to play along with the Rose Blossom Garden Challenge #4.  The challenge requires that we use a cricut cut from the Artiste cartridge from pg.69--the Birthday Girl key.   I used the Card and Shift key and cut at 8.25" from Heavenly Blue CS (retired CTMH) which actually makes an envelope.  I modified the shape I cut by trimming the sides and cutting off the bottom part to create a nice frame.  The patterned paper is retired Heavenly Blue and there is a Buttercup CS mat also.  The stamp is a very old wooden stamp by Close To My Heart called "For Baby".  There is a 1.5" strip of CTMH Black and Grey Glitter paper on the top part of the card.  I used Buttercup and Heavenly Blue markers to color the image and glitzed it up with Stardust Glitz Glitter Gel on the 2 stars and Silver Glitz Glitter Gel on the dots going around the image.  3D Foam Tape elevates the frame over the Silver Glitter strip and patterned paper.


Please stop by my blog tomorrow (5/24/13) to see the new Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge and details about my upcoming Memorial Weekend Blog Candy Giveaway.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful week filled with fun and creativity!
