Here I am interrupting the scheduled program! On a Saturday night no less! You see, in my reader today, I noticed a post from Verve reminding everyone of a challenge called "Baby Love" that ends tonight at midnight. I also noticed that the number of entries so far was pretty low, around 50 which is low compared to how many usually participate which would give me a better chance if I were to participate. I had ruled out the thought of participating a few days ago because most of my Verve stamps are sentiments. Don't get me wrong, I love all my Verve sentiment stamps, but I wasn't sure what baby one I had. Well, in this morning's post, I saw that it specifically said you did not have to use Verve stamps to get in on the challenge. So, I decided if I got time to go out to the "shack" today and inspiration came, I would participate. It happened and an idea came and you know what else? I ended up using my Verve sentiment stamps after all! I remembered I have the one that says ..."twinkle, twinkle little star, do you know who loved you are?" How perfect is that? I also remembered that early last year I made a baby boy card with some paper that said baby boy on it. I did a happy dance when I found some scraps left that would work. Now, I could tie in my twinkle love stamp to baby! I have no idea when I might need another baby boy card, but I will be ready. A while back a friend let me borrow her copy of a magazine put out by Papercrafts called Go To Sketches, so I went with an idea I saw in there. I love how it came out ... here it is... enjoy!
Recipe:
Paper - Baby Boy unknown (scrap), Bo Bunny Brilliant Blue Dot, Best Creation Inc. Glitter Blue Dot, Cardstock White, Blue
