Welcome, Little One card for Melissa

My friend and Stampin' Up! downline, Melissa just had a baby girl this last Friday! I'm so happy for her, Congrats Melissa!!!! I made this card to send to her based upon the sketch challenge with a twist at the CC EE Stampers blog! We were to create a baby card with a button(s) using their great card sketch challenge as well! I also entered this card at the Stampin' for the Weekend blog, which had a challenge to make a card that would make someone smile! Here's what I came up with!


Stampin' Essentials Tips:

• I used the Kiss Technique on the Elephant with Pretty in Pink and Chocolate Chip ink! For a Tutorial on how to create this look with two stamps, please CLICK HERE!
• My button on my card is from the Chocolate Chip Corduroy Buttons package! You get 24 pieaces in a package, 8 each of three different buttons & brads for $9.95.
• The Animal Stories stamp set (116716) is quickly becoming one of my favorite sets for creating baby cards! It contains 4 super sweet images for $15.95.
