High Hope Challenge

This week's High Hopes Challenge is being hosted by Sirpa. Her challenge this week is to create a baby card or a card for a young child. I thought I had this stamp in my collection, but alas I didn't. I placed an urgent order with Lacey over at Stamp and Create. She was terrific and shipped my order on Monday, and it arrived on Wednesday. Phewww, enough time for me to stamp, colour, and make my card.

The paper is from Martha Stewart Baby Boy mini paper pad I got from Michaels. I also got myself an i-top Tool by Imaginisce. Ahhhh, I love making embellishments that match the card. I used three different papers. I used one with stars to match the stamp, a polka dot design and then a piece with cute elephant and button circles. I used the small i-top paper puncher, punched some of button circles and made them brads! I nestled the brads into photo corner pieces I made with a Stampin' Up punch. The ribbon is my wonder find from Target. You cant really see it in my photo, but I used white DMC floss and attached a baby footprints charm that Lacey included with my order! (Thanks Lacey)
