It's raining...BABIES! :-)

Hello Everyone,

Hope that you're all having a fabulous weekend! I have been busy with a few family and friends meetings, but I have also had quite a few cards to make! I'm so lucky to be surrounded by people who like my work and order cards from me! :-)

Today I can finally present to you a Baby Shower card that I made for a friend. I couldn't post it earlier, not to spoil the surprise! The mommy-to-be doesn't know if the baby is a boy or a girl, so I decided to go with more neutral colours, rather than gender specific. I used an umbrella shaped-template by Shape EZ, which I thought was very apt for the occasion! A few butterflies (you know my obsession by now!), blingy flowers, some sparkly Stickles, pearls, and... voila! 

The card is apparently going to have a special place in the Baby Album, as my friend reckons it's one of the loveliest cards she has ever received! I was a happy bunny when she told me that! :-)

Hope you like it, too!
You can see the sparkle below: 
 A few friends signed the card inside, after the photos were taken:
 I also made a quick envelope, as the card didn't fit into anything I had!

I am entering the Umbrella Card into the following challenges:
Love To Create - Colour inspiration
Inky Chicks - Anything goes
Cute Card Thursday - Fly like a bird (butterflies fly, too! :))
Paper Crafting Journey - Anything but a square card
As you Like It - 3 favourite embellishments [butterflies - cause I'm obsessed with them, glitter - cause a bit of sparkle is always welcome, flowers - cause they're cute and girly!]

QKR Stampede - Anything goes
Crafty Friends Challenge - Bling
Totally Gorjuss - Wings

Have a great Sunday afternoon,

M.
