Crafty Bloggers Network Challenge

Here's a card I created for the Crafty Bloggers Network Challenge.
The theme is to use pink, purple, and green.

I am also entering it in The Pretty Little Ribbon Challenge.
The theme is to use bows or buttons.

Here's my creation:


I layered mint and lavender cardstock onto a bubblegum pink card.  The center is white cardstock that I embossed B-A-B-Y and the bird and flowers in white.  I inked the background with Bundled Sage, Milled Lavender, and Spun Sugar Distress Inks.  I stamped the swirl and dot images with Worn Lipstick Distress Ink.  Liquid Pearls in Mint Green, Lavender Lace, and Petal Piece to embellish, with a mint green bow to finish.

A closeup of the Liquid Pearls and embossing.

Hope you enjoyed the card I created, it's actually softer in person and is so cute for baby.
Thanks for looking!

    Thanks Kelley, it depends on how distracted or focused I am...sometimes a card can come together so quick, maybe 15 minutes. Other times I feel like it's taken me an hour to finish the darn thing!
