Michelle - You Are Glowing
My college roommate is having a her first baby! It's a girl, so naturally, I have to make a cute card. I find that I work best when inspired, so I was pumped to see this card at the CASE challenge at Fussy & Fancy:
I set out to create an envelope-looking background. It's like a jigsaw trying to get the stripes to go the same way:
Congrats is over-used, so I went with JOY on a peachy paper:
I used glittery gold embossing powder:
I also added purple bottles. Next I hand-stitched a border:
Add a ribbon border, blingy-bling, and crunch the edges of the peach paper. TA-DA:
I love the details and pinks:
I'm also entering these challenges:

Adorable stuff!!! Love your coloring on this, I'm sure your friend will love it! Thanks for joining us at Paper and Such.
Cute card, but unfortunately it doesn't qualify for the High Hopes challenge since you didn't use a High Hopes stamp. There is still time left to enter the challenge if you would like to re-enter using a High Hopes stamp.
