Today after church, we are having a baby shower! Thanks to my friend, I have my shopping done... Then it hit me. I need a card! Hmmm... ya think I could make one? LOL! That's the beauty of it! I'll never need to go shopping for one! In case you had the tiniest thought that it might be my baby shower, you just get that right out of your head! It is now impossible - whew! That really would be a miracle - lol! I don't have any 'parts' left - ha ha ha ha...
I think this is the first card I've made that wasn't for one of my dts. It feels a little funny. I think I'd like to get used to it though : )
I've used I Love You THIS Much - Boy by Karen's Doodles. I know that the mommy this card is going to is having a boy, so it made it a lot easier to design. Although I miss having bows and flowers, lace and sparkles... : ( I think overall, it turned out ok.
Here's a close up so you can see that I cut around the image where it extends beyond the oval.
Cute rattle charm... hee hee
I pulled the arms out for more dimension.

I am really enjoying coloring embellies to match my card! I was about to search through my embroidery thread to use for the buttons when the thought came to me - aha! I can just color the white thread with my copics!!! That was a wonderful feeling : ) I know... it doesn't take much to amuse me!

OMG Lori this is so perfect. I want to jump through the screen and pick this little boy up and snuggle him. He likes to real, especially the way you outstretched his arms, adorable!!!!
Darling card! I know what you mean, so nice not to have to go through card after card at the store and "settle" for something - then you see the same card at the shower/party from ten other people. Handmade is the way to go
lovely card, thankyou for sharing your creation with us at craftycatz, x carol
I too prefer the sparkles & bows of girly cards, however you did an excellent job with this one!!
This is so adorable!!! You did a fantastic job creating this work of art! Thank you for joining us at Sophisti-cat.
