Our sweet nephew was born earlier this month, and we were so thrilled he was a boy, he joins his one oldest brother and 3 sisters, I think to make the family complete :) to welcome him this is what I made to send along with his birth announcements that I made for them as well.
I really love how this card turned out. I decided to go really whimsical and color all of the animals in blues and whites to really emphasize the boy factor. The ark and animals are colored with copics and are popped up on the oval for some nice definition. The scalloped sentiment punch gives you almost the feeling of a cloud. And what's a baby card without gingham ribbon and buttons?
Always fun to create a baby card don't you think?
