I had a bit of spare time on my hands yesterday...you know, patiently waiting for this baby to be born and all...NOT ;-)...so thought I'd make the most of it and participate in this month's Papertrey Ink Blog Hop Challenge...
I decided to ink up Baby Button Bits for the first time. I haven't had this set for all that long, so it certainly wasn't dusty...but given that I'm 39+ weeks pregnant the baby theme seemed fitting to me!
This is the card that I made using this stamp set:
List of Ingredients:
Cardstock: Kraft and Stamper's Select White (PTI)
Stamps: Baby Button Bits (PTI)
Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento (Tsukineko)
Accessories: 2008 Bitty Dot Basics (PTI), Hawaiian Shores Luxe Satin Ribbon (PTI), Hawaiian Shores Vintage Buttons (PTI), Book Print Impression Plate (PTI), Tag Sale #1 Die (PTI), Twine, Mounting Foam, Glue Dots and Tombow Mono Adhesive.
This little fellow was another source of inspiration for my card, isn't he handsome?! I bought him at The Teddy Bear Shop on Monday. His name is Kembell, and he is patiently sitting in the moses basket, also waiting for our new family member to make an appearance. Waiting, waiting, waiting....;-).
Thanks for stopping by my blog, and if you're an Aussie...HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY!

What a great color combo, the Hawaiian Shores ribbon doubled up like that looks fab!
What a sweet card. I love all the layers and the colours do make me think of a warm sunny day at the beach (right now we're knee high in snow and cold weather in Canada, so the beach is a very nice idea!!)
Perfectly adorable! Congrats on your newest addition! Hope you don't have to wait much longer! :)
