International Highlights - Baby

Welcome to our International Blog Highlight for the month of June, the theme this month is "Baby".  I like to have a couple of these on hand, as you never know when a little person decides to enter the world..... my daughter decided that she was ready 7 weeks before her due date!

The Moon Baby stamp set is super cute, I decided to make my own background by heat embossing in Silver for Boys, and Copper for Girls as it always reminds me of rose gold.

I cut the sentiment/gender using the Large Letters Framelits, to line up the inside of the letters after I mounted on the coloured cardstock I simply popped the die cuts back in and then the little bits of the "B, O and R" could be glued in to position perfectly.

Do you ever have a card that you are not 100% happy with? Well, for me the "GIRL" just didn't seem to pop,.... so I started to play - I decided that maybe if I coloured the die cut letters and place back into the card it would pop more... and speaking of pop I could use Mini Dimensionals (Yay), but maybe I shouldn't have; I was trying to do a soft layer of Berry Burst to give the some "lift" but I messed up the colouring,... so then I went with the ombre look to salvage my sponging - not what I had intended at all.

Well, I'd gone this far so I figure I'd just keep going, still not sure if I am happy with the Girl card - probably because it is pink, and I normally love anything pink, but the Soft Sky card seems to be calling me.
