As some of you already know, I had a recent visit from my BFF, PattiLyn, and we created approximately 20 cards (among other things) while she was here. I've been trying to photograph, edit and post all of these cards since she left. This particular card started out as a baby card, but turned into a Birthday Card for a little girl's 1st Birthday. Again, I used Crate Paper products but this time they are from the Little Bo Peep baby line.
In addition to the patternd papers, chipboard cirlce (1) and tag (darling girl) from this line, I also included a Verve sentiment stamp (birthday wishes) and a PTI border die-cut at the top. I added a seam binding bow with a small piece of velvet ribbon, and a tiny Making Memories button in the center of my bow.
I took a close-up photo of the tag primarily because I'm so in love with that sweet bow. I've been hoarding that seafoam green velvet ribbon, and used only a snippet of it on this bow. I've also been hoarding those Making Memories buttons. Aren't they cute?
These are the challenges where I'm linking up this card:
Challenge #152 - Aud Sentiments 6th Birthday Celebration - I hope you will all come by to celebrate Aud Sentiments' 6th Birthday Celebration with them. I know they would love to have you all play along and wish them a happy birthday (and many more to come).
Sweet Stampin' Challenge Blog - Challenge: How Old? - This is clearly a card celebrating a 1st Birthdayfor a Darling Girl!
Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge - April Challenge - I love this challenge because it encourages me to use up my stash of patterned papers.
