Inkspirational Welcome Baby

Happy Tuesday, all! I have a quick little card today for a friend who became a great-grandmother recently!  I was going to use my little peekaboo bunny die, but opted for this sweet little baby shoe image instead:


The Inkspirational challenge this week is to use stencils with the option of plaid:


so I used a Kristina Warner Layering Plaid Stencil to create a background; I used Pretty in Pink and Strawberry Slush for my simple plaid.  The baby shoes are a Susan Branch design; I stamped them in Versafine Black and watercolored some shading:


I added a pale gray mat, a little sentiment from Our Daily Bread Designs, and a gingham bow.  The inside features sentiments from Hero Arts and Technique Tuesday:


I'll pop this in the mail today!  Thanks for visiting, enjoy your day and be blessed!

How very sweet! I love the softness that the stencil gave your plaid, perfect for a baby card, and the pink gingham bow is the perfect accent too.
