Baby blues

Hi everyone,
What a beautiful day here today, in the 50's. This has been a very mild winter and I love it.
I made this sweet little card yesterday for fun. I have never really done a clean and simple card before, but I have seen a lot of comments about them on different blogs. It truly is a struggle not to keep adding layers. It is sort of like the first time you put on a bathing suit, you see all that white and you want to cover it up. Also you cannot hide any imperfections, your image is out there for the world to see haha.

That being said I am glad we have a few more months before bathing suit season!

I used a digital stamp for my image from funky kits.co/uk called bambino. The sentiment is from a recollections group. I colored with copics, cut with spellbinders dies added a bow and a charm...there you have it!





I hope you like it! I am entering it in the following challenges:

Less is More Punches or Diecuts
Lollipop Crafts Anything goes.

Thanks for popping on by, leave me a comment so I know you were here, I love comments hehe!

Beautiful card and stunning colouring, I love CAS "white" space...but I agree white "pasty" skin....not so good! It's the one advantage of winter....covering everything up!!!
