Oh Baby!

New babies smell amazing .  

This week my special friends welcomed a baby girl into their family so I needed a card.

I began by stamping the booties from Serendipity Stamps onto white cardstock using black Memento ink.  I then coloured them using Copic markers, fussy cut them out and glued a tiny pearl onto the bow.

To create the circle, I cut a circle mask using a Spellbinders die and sponged on pink Distress ink.  To help define the circle, I used my Copic markers and a technique called Pointillism to add interest.  

Pointillism is basically little dots of colours blended using a clear blending pen.

The finishing touches were to add the piercing and stamp the sentiment.

Adding my card to these challenges:
