Baby card

Hi there,  I thought I'd better make a few baby cards as I'm doing my first craft fair in a few weeks, this one uses a gorgeous digi stamp from Mo Manning.

I've coloured the image with coloursoft pencils and added some glamour dust highlights. The bp is from the Artylicious 'Decadent Brocade' cd and has been distressed with victorian velvet distress ink. The main image is matted on a doiley and the roses are all from Wild Orchid Crafts. The daisies are from Kort and Godt and are almost to pretty to use, the flowers all have a little sparkle from some glamour dust but it doesn't show up in the pic. I made a little shrink plastic sentiment and attached it with silicone, the ribbons and pearls are from my stash. Here's another pic to show the detail a little better


I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Cupcake Craftroom: Soft and sweet
Glitter Fairies: pretty in pink
Paper Creations Ink: show us your flowers
Paper Playtime: anything goes
Stamps & Fun = Creativity: Monochrome

Thanks for calling by today
hugs
Claire xx
