Steph's Card

Okay, ignore the fuzziness of the photography!  I edited the picture to get a sharper image, but the colors came out all wrong--so I will stick with this one.  This is a little card I made for my niece Stephanie's baby shower this weekend.  She is expecting her first child, a boy, in May, and she is the first of her generation in our family to have a child.  We are very excited!  She likes vintage style, so I chose the same Jenni Bowlin paper I used on her shower invitations (did I show you that one?).  I used a Martha Stewart punch for the border and stamped the little onesies in various colors of chalk ink, using the kissing and smooching technique (I will never look at a bold image the same way again!) to make patterns like cloth on the onesie.  I got the clothesline inspiration from an older Hero Arts stamp (you can't see the stamping--it's covered up by the clothesline!)  Inside the card the greeting reads "Just for You".  Now I just need to go shopping for the onesies for a gift!
