Baby Giraffe

Hi all!  I can't keep my thoughts off of baby projects since I got my new Verve set, To The Moon.  It's fabulous!!!  I don't always do cute images really well, but I think this set will be an exception for me. 

There is a young woman at work who will be having a baby and going on maternity leave soon.  I made this card for her shower, which is next week.  I used Sankari's sketch for the 4th week of Viva La Verve.  I wanted to use my liquid pearls, but they are opal colored and it just didn't work with the sponging I had done all over the card.  So I whipped out some of my Kaisercraft pearls in latte.  That worked fine for me.

I also had to tone down my organdy ribbon when I made the double bow.  It looks much more pink when there are a couple of layers together that when it is single. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Great use of Sankiri's sketch. That little raffie is adorable and I love the pearl circle.
