A Punch of Baby

A few posts ago, I showed off my MDS shower card for my friend Lisha.  Well, the shower went well (thanks for asking), and little Joshua should be born very, very soon.

I created this card to accompany her shower gift.  I CASED the cute baby from Ellen Kemper) but didn't have all the right punches.  So, I had to improvise a bit, but overall I like the way my cute, chubby baby turned out.  Another little tidbit about the baby...I used a SU marker for the skin!  Blushing blossom to be exact.  Most stampers use the blushing blossom card stock, but since I had none, I improvised with Whisper White card stock and a marker.


The rattle is punched out and the handle is from Something Sweet stamp set that will be in the new catalog.  The 'baby' is from the Tiny Tags stamp set.

Just 2 more days until the catalog is officially OUT!  I have made so many lists of items that I want, but I think dear hubby might not like the bill!  So, I'll just have to pace myself....I hate pacing myself....but I will.......kinda.

Happy Stampin!
