I used Starburst Sayings -- so glad it found it's way into the new catalog!!  It's one of my favorite sets!  I paired it with designer paper from the new Moonlight Designer Series Paper Stack--love the colors in this stack!!  They work great for masculine cards!

Baby Card

Sorry for the poor image--I stamped the monkey over and over to creat a background.  I used Pink Pirouette, and it just doesn't show up in pictures!  I'm even outside in the bright sunlight!!!  haha!!  Anyway, this is a card I made for a friend of mine, for her baby shower.

I used my aqua painter to "paint" three strips of color on the water color paper.  Then, I stmaped my little fishies in Black Stazon Ink.  Pretty cute, huh?!!!

Be sure to leave your link over at the Nacho Blog, so that we can all see your awesome ideas!!!

I used the Perfect Pennants Stamp Set--so glad it made it into the new catalog!!!  Colors are right from the challenge, except I substituted Soft Sky for the Bashful Blue (I don't have bashful blue!)  The tag was made using the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch!

Enjoy your Sunday!!!
