This little number uses an image from Dustin Pike.....from ages ago. I really don't think it is still available, but it's a cutie and works well for a baby card. I've used water colours this time with some prisma pencils for added shading. Her nails and belly also have pink stickles......of course! More stickles, plus pink pearls and yellow liquid pearls dress up the die cut circle.
The card blank was purchased from Michaels and already embossed. I applied the colour with a brayer this time, and it works much better than a sponge. Use it lightly with only a light layer of ink. A few pretty flowers, a nice big bow and a sentiment.....then I was done.
Now I just need to wait for one of my nieces to have a girl! Well, I'm ready even if they're not!
And a few fun challenges.....be sure to check them out!

LOL..great post and fantastic card!! I absolutely love the elephant and the way you've embellished the card. Maybe if your niece gets a sneak peek at this, it will be inspiration. ;)
