Since becoming pregnant and becoming a mother, my hobby of card-making has fallen by the wayside, which is unfortunate given the fact that I have an entire room (and oodles of supplies) dedicated to the hobby.
Mike's cousin (Tina) recently adopted a baby so, we needed to send a card for this new baby boy. My inspiration was blue paper with brown squiggle dashes, along with this adorable SOCK MONKEY stamp set (by Stampin Up) which I have been wanting to use one of these days.
I believe my cardstock was creamy caramel, chocolate chip and not-quite-navy. I used a few shades of browns of my "adult (watercolor) crayons" with a blender pen for coloring. I used 3D foam adhesive for the waving hand, the tail and the snout so that they are all lifted off of the page.
When I showed the card to Mike, he said "B is for MONKEY?"
Inside, I wrote:
beautiful baby boy!
Congrats to Tina and Ryan on their new addition - baby Rhys (pronounced Reece)
