Pink Pretty Mama

Yesterday I had a chance to go to the Stamping by the Sea convention in Ocean City, MD (how convenient that my family’s beach house in Delaware is only 45 minutes or so away . . .). While at the show I was able to visit with Tracey from Starving Artistamps for a while and check out the fabulous cards on display at the SA booth, and pick up some new stamps, too--of course!

I made this card using images from the DoodleFactory Oh Baby set from Starving Artistamps. I went with a feminine monochromatic color scheme here, coloring mom and baby Izzy with shades of pink Copic markers. Izzy is cut out and attached to the panel with a dimensional.

I used the striped background stamp on the top portion of the card base to add some interest, then layered on the image panel, backed with a scalloped circle. The sentiment is stamped in rose ink on a rose panel, edged with a scalloped strip to match the scalloped circle behind the image panel. I added a pair of pink flowers as a simple embellishment.

Materials Used:
DoodleFactory Oh Baby! and Sentiments Baby sets, striped background (Starving Artistamps); white cardstock (Taylored Expressions); Tuxedo Black ink (Memento); markers (Copic); Regal Rose and Pretty in Pink Classic inks, Regal Rose, Pink Pirouette, and Pretty in Pink cardstock, scallop edge punch, dimensionals (Stampin’ Up!); circle and scalloped circle dies (Nestabilities); flowers (Prima); clear crystal (Martha Stewart); silver gel pen (Signo)
