Well I'm late again! Today's project was designed using LAST WEEK'S sketch over at Mojo Monday. I quite liked the sketch, but alas I am too late to enter the challenge. Ah well...maybe next time! Here is my project:

| Baby card featuring the Zoo Babies, Hearts A-flutter and Sweet Essentials stamp sets. |
Would you believe this is the first time I've inked up my Zoo Babies stamp set?? I've had it for nearly a year and it just finally saw ink this past weekend! Sad or what?? Thankfully it is back in the new 2014/15 Annual Catalogue so I'll have another year to play with it.
Here are some tips in case you want to recreate this one:
- The colour in the top photo is really off...the bottom one is more accurate! My colour scheme was Coastal Cabana, Pool Party, Crumb Cake and Whisper White.
- The DSP is from the Fresh Prints DSP stack.
- I used the Adorning Accents TIEF to add this little embossed hearts along the bottom of the card base. (psst...if you like those little hearts get those folders now...they're retiring soon!)
- The rear panel is stamped using the soon-to-be-retired Hearts A-Flutter stamp set and was then run through the Big Shot with the also-soon-to-be-retired Square Lattice TIEF. I trimmed the left edge of the panel with a bit of Stretch ruffled trim (also retiring!)
- The sentiment is from the Sweet Essentials stamp set (it's retiring too...are you sensing a theme here?)
- The ribbon is 3/8" taffeta in Crumb Cake, which is...wait for it...also retiring!
Yup, I'm losing a ton of supplies to retirement this year! There is going to be one heck of a Yard Sale come June...stay tuned for more about that!
Speaking of retirement, there are some great soon-to-be-retired items on this week's Weekly Deals. Check 'em out:
This is so cute. Darling little animals in that set.
