Little Boys


Ronnie, my dear friend from university, and his wife have just had their first child - a bouncing, baby boy!  I wanted to send them a little card to welcome him and I thought this week's ColourQ colours would be perfect for it.  I pulled out Papertrey Ink's Hanging Out dies and stamps and some Pebbles patterned paper and went to work.  I often make clothing lines with this set but this time I decided to pop up a panel with the die cuts on it and lay the papers underneath.  It fits in with the negative die cut challenges running at both A Passion for Papertey and the Moxie Fab World so I'm going to link it up.  Hope your week is off to a great start!


Supplies Used:
Cardstock:  (White) Bazzill, (Midnight Muse) Stampin' Up
Patterned Paper:  (Family Ties collection) Pebbles
Stamps:  (Sentiment from Hanging Out) Papertrey Ink
Ink:  (VersaMark)  Tsukineko
Embossing Powder:  (Seafoam White)  Ranger
Dies:  (Hanging Out) Papertrey Ink
Punch:  (Corner rounder) Marvy Uchida
Gems:  (Mini Pearls) Doodlebug
