Baby Shower Card

Here I am with my Sunday night post.... I have trying to post a little more often this year...

OK for today's card....  I made this card for Julie's friend Stephanie who is expecting her first baby girl!!!

I bought this stamp set last year at the Consumer show after CHA from Taylored Expressions.
It is fun to color, especially with my Copics markers.

Here is the card:

The details:

Stamp:  Jenn from the Moka Collection, Taylored Expressions
Inked with Memento Tuxedo Black in and colored with Copic Markers.
The image was cut was Nestabilities Ovals.

The patterned papers are from a new 8 x8 paper pad I just bought:  First Edition Paper, Spring Drop 
I used the flowered background and 3 other prints (some are back to back) for the scallops on the side.  The scallops were cut with a Stampin'Up scallop border punch.  I also "paper-pieced" her top, then shaded it with Copic Markers.

The card base is Stampin'Up cardstock in Tango Tangerine.

The greeting:  (It's a baby shower) was computer generated and printed on the back of the flowered background.  I cut the end in points as a flag.

The buttons were threaded with Stampin'Up butcher cord and they are old from my supplies (they are Making Memories).

The cream silk ribbon is by Stampin'Up.

When I was all done, I used my glue pen and added glitter all around the white oval and the greeting.

That's it!!!
