"Buggy Bloom"

Good evening, stampy friends :)

I was able to have a lil fun this evening and created a lil baby card for a friend...

This is "Buggy Bloom" from Baby Bud Designs! Isn't she the sweetest?!

What I love SO much about this image, is that it can be colored up for a boy too ;) Very important to have versatility in your stash!

This week, Jana challenges us with a color theme of "Winter Wonderland"...

Navy Blue, White (or Ivory), Silver (or Grey)

I would also like to enter my card to the following challenges too:

I decided to use the adorable "One Special Night" digital image...

I totally blew the "Navy Blue" part of the challenge, didn't I? Oops! Well, it's a kind of blue, right?! LOL! Sorry! Almost forgot the grey too, but made up with it using the pearls, even though they look kind of white-ish... sigh... so, I used October Afternoon DP and Papertrey Ink CS; Delicate Crochet Ribbon and Scalloped Scallops Die-namics, both from MFT; other dies from my Slice! and happy Copics to color the sweet image all in :) {Sentiment is from StampInsanity Stamps "Morgan's Star" Rubber Stamp Set using Memento Tuxedo Ink.}

As soon as I saw this paper pack from Close To My Heart,

I knew that it would go perfectly with ALL of my Pixie Dust Princess' digi images!

And then I remembered Tammy's wonderful tutorial...

... and finally, here it is ;) 

Here is an open view...

Top view of the box... the lid...

featuring "Cinderella"
