One of my really good friends Tin, asked me for a baby card for a boy and I knew I wanted to use the handprints and I thought the sketch for this week was really cute, and decided to pair them together.
I used a retired Stampin Up set for the handprints (no idea of the name) but the handprints look the same as the ones in Baby Prints which is a CURRENT set in the catalogue.
I embossed the handprints in silver and I am super happy with the result! I layered the handprints on a bit of pumpkin pie paper.
I really like blue and yellow for a boy and used some Taken With Teal retired paper (working on using my retired stash- keep wondering why they retired this color, I LOVE IT), Daffodil delight and the DSP is also from a retired set called Big Top Birthday. The Daffodil Delight paper is embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.
There is a scallop centre line with two strips of marina mist and daffodil delight ribbon and 3 buttons at the bottom. I really like the look of the twine in the buttons :-)
The second picture shows the inside of the card with a sentiment from the God's Blessings set.
Really hope you like it Tin!
Thanks for visiting my blog and check again, I have a BEAUTIFUL wedding card I will share soon!
Hugs,
Renate

Will let you know how successful this card is. I'm going to show everyone at the baby-shower your work and see if they won't bombard you with orders or beg for classes!
