Baby Boy

I've made an easel card for a baby boy using one of my favourite bear sets from Lili of the Valley.  The whole theme is blue and I've added lots of flowers and ribbons to make it a real keepsake card.  We're looking for your favourite dies this fortnight at As You Like It Challenge and I'd have to say for me it's anything stitched, but I really do like circle nesties. I have a fair few of them in different varieties (dotted, stitched, double stitched, scalloped ...) so I think this is probably a good choice although picking a favourite die is like picking a favourite ice cream - you can't pick just one when you have so many delicious ones to choose from!

Water-coloured on Langton Watercolour paper with Ranger Distress Ink Reinkers:

• Fur: Stormy Sky, Faded Jeans
• Grass: Shabby Shutters, Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint
• Sky: Tumbled Glass
