Peek-a-boo Baby - NAC15 & JAI139

 

 

Todays card is for Nacho Average Challege 15, a sketch challenge.  It also encompasses Just Add Ink #139 which says to use something new.  My something new is my Peekaboo Frames die!

 

  When the Peekaboo Frames die first came out last year and they were showing it used in making advent calendars and such, I just couldn't see where that would fit in with my stamping.  Then, recently while flipping through the Catalog and Idea Book, I saw a card made with the Peekaboo frames and another stamp set that contained little images.  The idea of making a baby card with this same concept, only using my Baby Bundle set came to mind.  I basicly bought that stamp set for the cute little stroller image and didn't think I'd really ever use any of the other stamps.  Once I had the idea, I had to purchase the Peekaboo Die right away.  AND THEN, along comes NAC sketch challenge.  It was a match made in heaven! 

 I tried to use neutral colors that could go either boy or girl, since I don't have anyone in particular to give this card to.  I was just so excited about this idea and getting to use those stamp images that I thought I'd probably never use otherwise!

 

 

Here are some pictures inside the peekaboo frames.

Mojo Monday 229 ~ Baby Girl Bundle

Here's my card for Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge 229. 

It's a little hard to see in the photograph, but I fussy cut the little pair of booties from this set and dangled them from the bow on some silver thread....so cute in real life!  Actually, now that I think about it, I might go back and add some diamond dust glitter to the tips of each bootie.  That could be just the right final touch!  I also ran the whole base of the card through my Big Shot using a polkadot EF.  I think it made the backround look kind of like a baby quilt.

Here is a list of supplies I used......

Stamps: Baby Bundle, Distressed Dots

Paper: DP & pink cardstock from Close to My Heart, White (SU)

Ink: Stazon Black, Regal Rose

Accessories: Blender pen and watercolor pencils, Three Heart punch, Modern Label and Word Window punch, Corner Round punch, Wasabi Striped ribbon, Rhinestone basics, Silver thread, Large Dot EF
