Mojo Monday #97

I am so thankful for longer afternoon naps so that get back to my stamping.  That ONE short nap for a few weeks was just killing me and my stamps were just calling my while a toddler kept my attention.  I feel like I did a really good job sticking to the Mojo Monday sketch this week. 

The inspiration for this week’s came from the gift it went with.  My friend Heather had a baby girl last week and I wanted to wait until we found out what it was to get a gift.  I love the greens and yellows, but love shopping for gender specific clothes more.  I used one of the onesies as my color/card inspiration.  Isn’t it adorable???  I love how little the clothes are!

Here’s my card:

I also got to hold the new baby!  It’s hard for me to remember when Taylor was that little, well actually she was never quite that little but pretty close.  Baby E was so sweet and tiny.  Plus I was jealous that Heather didn’t even look like she was ever pregnant!  I think I have more of a can’t believe it’s still there baby belly than she does!  When I saw the giraffe I knew I had to grab my Wild About You stamp set to match it.  I wish I had some animal print paper, but like the TE polka dot and striped paper.  The background paper is double sided so I cut it in half and then flip one side over so that you saw both the dots and stripes.  I used the theory of more is more on this card and had fun.  First I added the piercing around the giraffe, then gave her some stickles/glitter on her polka dots, then added the bling to the corner.  I might try this theory more often because it turned out cute.  I wish you could see the sparkles better, so just turn your screen to get the full effect.
