School is back in session and as excited I get for school to start, I miss my boys like crazy during the day! Thank goodness my sweet boy Owen still has a few years left before he's in school. I'm going to have to borrow a baby when that happens!
I've been off a day this week with the holiday, but I'm slowly catching back up. Made my way over to Mojo Monday for a little sketch inspiration this morning before the boys got up. I was a bit stumped by all of the layers in this sketch and just couldn't decide what stamp set to use. So, as I was trying to figure that all out, I hopped on over to Hand Stamped Sentiments and I was no longer stumped! This week is a color challenge and the fun colors totally inspired me to make a baby boy card.
Take the Mojo Sketch and the HSS color challenge...
...and here's what you get...
I love the Button Buddies set! Add the cute little duck from the Embellished Events set and you've got a super cute card. I may have to make this card in some shades of pink too! Lots of weddings this year means lots of babies coming soon :)
Supplies Used:
Paper ~ Whisper White, Night of Navy, Daffodil Delight, Certainly Celery, Temping Turquoise, Brights Collection DSP
Ink ~ Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Night of Navy
Stamp Sets ~ Embellished Events, Button Buddies, Sweet Essentials
Other Supplies ~ Adorning Accents Edgelits, Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder, Stripes Embossing Folder, 2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch, 1 3/4" Circle Punch, Regals Designer Buttons
Better get myself out the door...early release at school today! It feels good to be back into the school routine and have a set schedule every week day. The more structure I have, the more I get done and the more free time I have for stamping...WIN!
Happy Stamping!
