IT'S A BOY!

A friend of mine, Lynette, had a new grandson born in December and I was able to finally get a card made and off to her a few days ago. 

Card base is white.  I then cut a piece of SU baby blue card stock approximately 5 1/4" x 4".  The background paper is some I've had for a long time and probably came from Michael's.  The background paper was trimmed to just slightly smaller than the SU cardstock. 

The teddy bear design which I have had for a long time is from Darcie's.  I colored it with my Copic markers and then cut and embossed it with my Spellbinders Classic Circles.  Using the Spellbinders Scalloped Classic Circles, I cut a layer from the SU baby blue. 

I simply placed the design on the paper before adhering it with pop dots so I could determine where to stamp the "Congratulations".

I'd welcome your thoughts about the card............thank you for stopping by!
