Hello!

I hope everyone is great and staying healthy!  I have taken an unwanted break from my craft room.  Pneumonia hit our house.  All six of us were down with it.  We spent 5 days in the hospital, 2 with our son then a few days later 3 with two of our girls.  It seems to be taking forever to get over pneumonia.  We are still coughing and hacking, but feeling MUCH better!  Lately I have managed to spend some much needed time in my pink haven

I absolutely love Bella stamps.  One of my friends is within days of having her baby so I wanted to send her a fun, girly, Craveabella card.  She is expecting a boy, so this is probably the last girly thing she’ll get for awhile!

I used sketch challenge SC213 for the layout:

When I make a card and am unsure how to color the image, I will stamp several and experiment with different colors on each one until I hit the jackpot.  My girls love it when I do this.  They collect all my experiments and make cards of their own with them.  I think they ended up with about 5 Craveabella’s to play with!  It was fun though.  My favorite things on this card are the pillow and the huge flower.  I colored the pillow in a striped pattern, mimicking the striped DP.  The flower was made using various flower punches I have (they aren’t even by the same manufacture, amazing!).  I placed dimensionals between the pretty in pink and white petals so it wouldn’t be flat.  I hope you like it

Have a great day and stay healthy!!
