A girl I work with (affectionately referred to as Mother Tucker) on my team is preggers and she just had her gender reveal the other day. For those of you past this point in your life, there is this new thing where you get dark colored balloons (or cake) and then when you pop the balloons, confetti inside tells you if they are having a little boy or girl. Anyhow, she is having a boy, which is where I got the idea for my card.
Of course since I haven't had a lot of time for playing with paint or inks I had to go all out and add splatters, stamps, bling, and hand dyed ribbon. Good thing I started with a strong base....
On the second card I used just the words from the file. Really love those embossed letters and that little flower cluster! Looking forward to getting this card off to some new parents I know...I hear they haven't been sleeping much so I think I'll pair up the baby gift with some tea!
Happy Friday!
I absolutely love these cards. I especially like the first one with all the extras that you added. I have forgotten to make some of your hand dyed ribbon lately (will get some going again) Love that look. Did you make the background doilies? I can't stop looking at your creative juices that are flowing on this sweet card.
