{pink} so sweet

I don't get to work with pink very much being the momma to 3 boys!  A friend of mine recently had a sweet baby girl who unfortunately has some medical issues that are slowly but surely being resolved.  This sweet girl has been the recipient of a lot of prayer and cyber hugs from all over.  She is going to bring great joy to her family, this I know. I wanted to share the card I made for her.

 So Sweet.

Paper: MME, The Girl's Paperie, Stickers: SRM, Punches: Marvy Uchida

Lots of SRM on this one, borders, fancy and loops.  Black isn't a traditional color for a baby card, but I like how the black dotted paper brings out the type in the pink paper scallops.  A somewhat sophisticated look with the scallops preventing it from being overly so, no? 

I'm off to continue my search for a used card for the boys.  What an eye-opening experience this has been!  I am amazed at what people are asking for card that are 10 years old!  Hoping I can find just the right amount of safety and style.  :)

  4. I have 2 boys, no girls. I can totally relate to you in regards to creating with pinks and all things girly. It is rather refreshing on occasion isn't it? Your sweet card is perfect. The black looks amazing on there, it definitely accentuates the scallops! Beautiful! :)!
