FTL114 – Clean & Simple Sketch

Hello everyone!

I have two baby girl cards to make … and as soon as I saw the latest FTL Sketch … I had a picture in my head for this one! It is such a fun sketch … and I hope you check out the Clean & Simple blog … because Heather’s latest snowflake creation for this sketch is stunning! I love the variety of cards that our C&S blog friends have come up with for this sketch! (Click on sketch to check them out) I did have fun creating this one!

Aren’t those “Baby Tees” sooooo sweet! These images are from the NEW “Baby Tees” Jumbo Wheel stamp in the IB&C (page 57). Now I know you are going to ask … How did you get those images to stamp randomly … instead of in the straight line that they usually “roll” in??? Well … I got the idea from Keesh … to remove the rubber from the wheel stamp & cut around each image … mount onto “EZY Mount” – foam cushioning … and use these individual stamps with my clear mount blocks! How clever & how versatile!!! 😀 All the images are coloured with Stampin’ Write Markers … and I used a pale & darker shade of each of the three colours. The  initial colour combo was from my Colour Coach … Pretty in Pink/Marina Mist/Daffodil Delight. And … I teamed these colours with … Pink Pirouette/Bashful Blue/Barely Banana (ret. SU!). Makes for a pretty combo … perfect for a baby card!

Well … I have to do a birthday card for a 12 yr old boy today. Hhhhmmmmm …. that will take a little thought! I also want to send a card to a friend who lost her son a year ago … and another who lost her husband around the same time. And … of course … I have to do that 2nd baby card! So … I think I am going to have a nice day playing with my stamps! Have a great day everyone! Hugs xxaxx
