New Baby under a Blue Moon

Good morning! We are hunkering down in anticipation of another big snow, so I decided it was time to make a bright and cheerful card.



I was trying to use the Stamping 411 sketch for this week to make this card, but I just couldn't resist moving the sentiment off-center so that I could add a little ribbon knot. I kept taking it off and making it fit the sketch exactly, but in the end, I decided the knot needed to stay. The card seemed more balanced with it, for one thing, and for another, I had that scrap of ribbon left from another project and wanted to use it up! So I altered the sketch a bit.


The color inspiration came from a card of MaryJo Price-Williams' from last fall, I think, but this card has nothing to do with it other than the colors used. I like how the Ballet Blue gives the So Saffron and Garden Green a little pop.

So Saffron, Garden Green, Ballet Blue, Whisper white cs, So Saffron dsp
Nursery Necessities stamp set
So Saffron, Garden Green, Ballet Blue ink
