Baby Bear

I have found a couple of new blogs for challenges, and I am having so much fun thinking of ways to incorporate two or three challenges together in the little spare time I have.

My good friend and I had our first babies together an hour apart on the same day- and they are quite the couple! It has created such a string bond between us and our children. She has now had her second baby and I can't wait to meet him once my two boys have gotten over the flu.

A special friend ( and a special baby!) needed a special card. As usual, I turned to the web to see how I could be inspired.

One of my new favourites is Dynamic Duos. This week their colours were perfect for a baby card!

I am also playing along with another new find, Mojo Monday, and their sketch.
 
 
Lastly, I am linking up to An Inky Situation. How could I resist that teddy bear?
 
 
Here is my card based on the three challenges.


 
This was my first time doing punch art, and I can't decide if the teddy bear looks cute or slightly creepy! It was also my first try at using alphabet stamps.
 
Supplies used:
Close To My Heart: Laughing Lola Assortment, Urban Alphabet stamp set.
Creative Memories: Circle Maker, Mini Circle Maker, Mini Heart Maker, Corner Rounder, Butter cardstock, Primary Paper Ribbon, Black Fine Tip Pen, Black cardstock, Espresso cardstock, Discover Baby Boy Photo Mats.
Making Memories: Pastel Mini Brads.
Stampin' Up: So Saffron marker, Pistachio Pudding ink, Pistachio Pudding cardstock, Itty Bitty punch pack, Soft Suede cardstock, Polka Dots embossing folder, Adorning Accents Edgelits.
