Thank you all so much for your sweet, sweet comments on my Paper Smooches Guest Designer post yesterday! Your support really means a lot to me so I couldn't help but make one more card using the Paper Smooches SPARKS Challenge as my inspiration. :) Babies are warm, lattes are warm. Babies are cute, macaroons are cute. Babies are a celebration and so are birthdays. The clothesline is like a banner and the top of the notebook edge die is like the ruffles on the onesie. And, of course, I pulled all the colours from the photo for my card!
The sentiment, frothy latte and macaroon are from Hot Concoctions and the banner is made from a flag from Hang Ups. I used my twine knot technique to create the illusion of a banner. This is another version of the banners created HERE and HERE. After attaching the kraft panel to the base, it looked a little too plain so I cut two strips of blue cardstock which I think finishes the card nicely without making the background look too busy.
I'll be back in a few hours with a very exciting new Pink Cat Studio release!
