Moonbeam Baby

Hello, hostess Tami here with a baby girl card featuring a sweet baby stamp from Artemio and Donna Salazar Mix'd Media Inx...

The moonbeam baby image was stamped in Leather Mix'd Media Inx and embossed using Top Boss Clear Embossing Powder. Soft hues of Smooch Accent Ink were used to fill in the design. The image was then diecut and embossed, and the edges distressed using the brown ink...

The background image is from Artemio as well, it reminded me of a baby blanket. So I used the ColorBox Stylus & Tips to apply pretty, pastel shades of Mix'd Media Inx to the stamp, with a touch of brown around the edges to add some definition...

Lace, ribbon and a tiny safety pin finish the card...
