High Hopes Challenge #37!!


Sorry I'm a tad late this morning, but I actually whipped up this card just this minute!! I have a baby shower to go to this afternoon and I hadn't made the card yet....and I hadn't made my card for this week's High Hopes challenge....so I killed two birds with one stone!! Yaaaay me!

The hostess this week is the lovely Lacey and she has challenged us to use Stars or Stripes on our designs. I did both!! I stamped Precious Cargo on Wausau paper using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured it in with my Copic markers. Like I said, I made this just now in half an hour, so no fancy shading etc. today.

The card base is a green Bazzill Bling 5 1/4 inch square card with Sparkle Bazzill Bling for the matting, stars and sentiment layers. The patterned papers are by Dream Street and I used my star punch to add some embellishing. I stamped the sentiment on the reverse side of the Bling cardstock and pop dotted everything!!




The baby's name is Bentley and he isn't born yet but we'll be celebrating him today at the shower. I hope his Momma likes the card!!

Now hop on over to the High Hopes blog and check out all the wonderful samples created for your inspiration....then get stampin' and show us your Stars and Stripes!!!

Have a super inky day!!
