Welcome Little One!

Supplies:  Noah's Ark digi - Jane's Doodles, pp - Nancie Rowe Janitz collection 
Fancy Pants Designs, computer generated sentiment, copics, pop dots, Ocean 
Tides ribbon and button - PTI, Spellbinders Labels One,  machine stitching,
6x6 card blank - Anita's, embroidery floss and roller adhesive.

Friends of ours just added a beautiful baby boy to their family.  We are so thrilled for them.  Made this card to include in a package I am mailing today.

I used Jane's wonderful digi from Squigglefly called Noah's Ark to create this fun baby card.  I rotated/ flipped the image horizontally to "make a change".

I coloured the image using copics to reflect the colours in the patterned paper.  Adhered layers using pop dots after tearing and machine stitching!
I know that the boat hull looks bright in the photo - it isn't that vivid in real life! 

I am entering this card into the Moxie Fab World - Cool Tools Week - Die Cutting Challenge (have you seen the fun challenges that Cath has going over on Moxie at the moment?).

Other Challenges
Squigglefly - Button it up
Whimsie Doodles - new event in life (BABY!)

Thanks so much for peeking - hope you have a wonderful Wednesday.
