I started with a cream square card. I cut a scrap/snippet of yellow paper approximately 51/2 " x 21/2" and embossed with Tied Together EF from Couture Creations. I embossed another scrap/snippet in green paper and cut out the little sections and stamped 'BABY' with an alphabet by Claritystamp using Memento Tuxedo Black.
For the topper I stamped the LOTV Little Acorn stamp onto white card using versamark and WOW Black EP. I coloured using watercolour pencils then cut it out, and using Pinflair Glue Gel mounted it on to a green mat which has been die cut using S/B Decorative Labels Eight, the second size die. I finished it off with some little pearls in the corner.
The yellow and green papers are from a 6" x 6" pad of plain colour papers 120gsm by Dovecraft.
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Pixie's Crafty Workshop - Week 114 where we use up our snippets of paper/card.
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes with Pearls.
Less is More - Week 161 - Colour - Yellow and Green.
Addicted to CAS - Challenge 33 - Baby.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today, and I really appreciate all your comments.

Knew immediately this cutie image was LOTV. Didn't realize it was a stamp until I read the post. Great coloring with your pencils too. The S/B rectangle was so pretty with this & the color you selected. I'm liking that yellow embossed piece too, and the tiny letters. Did you hand cut those or is there a punch? If handcutting, my goodness, so even & smooth. This is just cute as can be. Smart you to have it ready...I don't have any reason for baby cards either! And this one works for either gender too. TFS & Hugs

Wow Pat, what a lovely card. Such a sweet image and a stroke of total genius to snip the Tied Together shapes for the word 'baby'. Perfect!
