It's a Boy!

The last few weeks have been extremely busy, but I've been stamping a lot!  I'll be showing all of my projects over the next few days....

My Mom gave us a co-ed baby shower/BBQ and we made these invitations together.  This stamp set, Baby Prints, came out in the Occasions Mini and I bought it immediately.  It's so cute and I knew it would be perfect for our upcoming events.  I was worried that it would be discontinued, but thankfully, it's in the new catalog too!  If you haven't seen the new catalog, check it out
We hand delivered these invitations, so I decided to go with something a little less traditional than a 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 card.  I used the Bashful Blue card stock to make a pouch for the Night of Navy insert and added the tab punch at the top to help pull it out.  You can't really tell in the picture, but the feet are stamped on shimmery white paper.  After we completed the invitations, we realized that we should have printed the invitation portion on shimmery paper as well... maybe next time!
 
Used in this card:
Stamp Set -- Baby Prints (125470 Wood, 125472 Clear)
Card Stock -- Bashful Blue, Night of Navy, Shimmery White
Ink -- Bashful blue, Midnight Muse
Accessories -- Silver mini brads, tab punch
Thank you for looking....come back tomorrow for another idea :)
