STAMPIN' UP!'S FOX & FRIENDS : FOR DD #11 AND SC 049/12

I'm on a bit of a 'baby card' kick at the moment, and had an idea that works for two of my favourite challenges.

Dynamic Duos has this gorgeous, soft, colour combination as the challenge this week:




and Sunny Challenges & Creations' challenge is to use circles on a papercraft project:





Here's the card I made, combining these two challenges:




Stamps: Fox & Friends, A to Z, Confetti, Short & Sweet
Card: Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Pink Pirouette, Baja Breeze
Ink: Pink Pirouette, Baja Breeze and Crumb Cake stampin' pads, Versamark inkpad
Other: 1 3/4" Circle punch, White embossing powder, sponge daubers, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Baja Breeze seam binding, Pink Pirouette taffeta ribbon, Whisper White taffeta ribbon, Word Window punch, Modern Label punch, mini glue dots


My boys are back at school, after 2 weeks holiday (actually, the eldest had almost 4 weeks, since he went on a Central Australia trip with school in the week leading up to the holidays), so the house is very quiet today!  As much as I love the holidays, I do like to get back into a 'normal' routine - although soon you might have to remind me I said that, as we get busier and busier, leading into cricket pre-season!!

    This is a very cool card, Christine. That white embossing and the sponging on top of the A to Z stamp is such a cool look.

    This is an awesome combination of the challenges, Christine & a gorgeous end result! So many clever techniques - I especially love the white embossed critters & the "grid" in the background stamping. Hugs :)

    Christine, this is absolutely darling. I love the background circles at the top and the cute little animals on their circles of card look so adorable. Thanks for joining our challenge at Sunny Challenges and Creations this week.
