I don't have much card-making experience but, I am starting to get into it and decided that I'd like to participate in some of the card-making challenges...so, here I am, sharing and blogging! Please keep in mind that I have NEVER blogged before and I have hardly made cards, let alone joined in card-making challenges but, I'm dedicating myself to improving and learning new techniques and will hopefully be taking 2-3 card-making and scrapbooking classes every month as well as expanding on my tools and supplies! :)
I am learning as I go along but, I hope you enjoy my blog and my work!
So, here it is:
UPDATE:
Ok, so I found the digital SLR and got some pictures that I think do this card more justice. Lol, I couldn't figure out how to put it on auto-focus so, I hope these images are sharp enough! They are pretty true to colour and I think you can see how the card conveys the soft sweetness that a baby girl card should.
I will be entering this card into the following challenges:
Supplies:
PAPER: Patterned Paper: pebbles: "She's Here" and "Little One" from the "New Arrival" Line;
Cardstock: Bazzill (not sure of colours);
EMBELLISHMENTS: Buttons: pebbles: "New Arrival Buttons - Girl"; Paper Flowers: "New Arrival Paper Flowers - Girl"; Ribbon: Unknown; Stick Pins: Jenni Bowlin: "Cream Stick Pins"
STAMPS: Stampin' Up!: "Nursery Necessities" (front); Stampin' Up!: Congrats (inside)
TOOLS: Punch: Martha Stewart Crafts: "Eyelet Lace" Punch Around the Page
