Baby Bear

Good morning everyone - don't Mondays come round ever so fast? Today sees the start of a brand new challenge over at Lexi's Creations and the challenges this time is Fancy Folds.  For this I have made a criss cross card using the adorable Baby Bear which you can get here at Fairy Dust Crafts. The sponsors for this challenge are Stamping Bazaar and the prize is one of their digital images so get cracking with your fancy folds and enter the challenge to be in with a chance to win. I decided to make a card for a new baby boy, here is my card:


What a little cutie he is with his little dummy in his mouth!! I have put the sentiment on the inside:


I do like criss cross cards I think they look really good and are easy to make.  The digital papers are by Raspberry Road called My Baby Love Boy.  I have computer generated the sentiment which has been cut with a Nestie and matted onto a Heart Nestie and I used the same two for the image on the front.  The flower is made with a Marianne die and the heart border is Martha Stewart.  The gems and ribbon are from my stash. I would like to enter the following challenges:

Dream Valley Challenge - Animals
Sentimental Sundays - Die Cuts
Crafty Pad - Something for the Boys
The Squirrel and The Fox - Critters
Cardmadfairy's Digi Days - Ribbons and Bows
Pattie's Creations - Fancy Folds
