This card was a lot of fun to make. I really love the new Fox Builder punch and Foxy Friends Stamp set as it can be used for a lot of different occasions. This time I used it for a Baby Card.

The Artful Stampers Blog Hop #98

Welcome from Anna’s blog.

This week is a Mosaic Theme Challenge.

I found this one a real challenge but this is what I ended up with and I feel I may have cheated a little by using a DSP with Mosaic print.

The Artful Stampers Blog Hop #96

Welcome from Nicole’s blog.

This week we have a Sketch Challenge.

This is what we had to work with:

This is what I came up with:

This photo really doesn't do the Specialty Designer Series Paper justice, as there is copper foil print on it that just does not seem to show up very will in photos. It really gives the card an elegant feel. I decided to make a frame using the washi tape to surround the numbers as I felt using a solid paper background detracted too much from the pretty floral print. I also sponged some soft suede ink over the silver glimmer paper to make it a more copper colour to blend with the SDSP a bit better.
