Moon Baby Girl

 Hello and welcome back! Here's today's card:

This card was inspired by the challenges at Color Throwdown and Try Stampin on Tuesday. (I rotated the sketch 90 degrees to fit my design.)

A woman I sing with in a community chorale just had a baby girl this week so naturally, I had to make a card! Baby cards are my favorite, and I keep coming back to this stamp set. Normally I would have colored the moon with yellow, but since the color challenge did not include that, I improvised with the gray. The moon really is that color anyway! I stamped the image on Smoky Slate cardstock and added some texture with a moon stamp, then fussy cut it and added it to the focal image. The baby is colored with Stampin Blends and I added a little glimmer paper star. I also painted a couple of the embossed stars on the background with Clear Wink of Stella. I think you can see it in the photo below. Also barely noticeable is the Pecan Pie outline on the scalloped label that I created by edging with the brush end of a Stampin Write marker. It adds a bit of definition, along with popping the piece up with dimensionals.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!
