Hot Rod Baby Shower Card...

Hi there, friends!  Today, I want to show you a card I made for a friend that had her Baby shower recently.  We are so excited for her because she has 2 girls (4 and 2 years old) and really wanting a boy for her third child.  And she did...she will finally hold the little fella in a month or so.  So, I made a simple card for her together with a crochet baby blanket (I made for the first time) that I will be posting here pretty soon as well.  I didn't have a lot of time to make an elaborate card (blame it on the sleepless nights completing the blanket...LOL) so, here's what I came up with.  I used an A2 card for the base and lined it up with another white that I embossed with my Cuttlebug.  The DP was from my scraps, a nice ribbon, 3 different color buttons from Paper Studio and the sentiment is from Clearly Wordsworth.  The main image is from Inkadinkado that I paper pieced and colored with my Prismacolor markers.  The inside message is from Cloud 9.  I appreciate simple styles but when I am the ones making it, it seemed like it was not enough...LOL  Maybe because I got used to spending lots of hours making one card.  Anyway, my friend liked it and love, love, love the baby blanket.  If you want to see the Baby Blanket I made, browse on top of this post and you'll find some pics...So, let me know what you think.  This Card is entered into the following Challenges:

1.    Oldie but a Goodie featuring "Anything Goes"

HOT ROD BABY SHOWER CARD WITH ENVELOPE:

Yesterday (Memorial Day), we stayed at home all day long, mostly sleeping as we stayed up so late last Sunday- early Monday morn.  And tonight is no exception...Past midnight, we haven't got dinner yet...LOL  My hubby is barbecuing outside still...I know it's silly but were such night owls...Anyway, I thank God for the lives of the people in the Military.  For their selfless service to our country accompanied by much sacrifices.  I pray for safety to all these men and favor from the Lord Jesus as they continue to put their trust in Him.  Have a wonderful day and God bless y'all!
