My Great-niece is expecting her first baby and reports are that it will be a boy. So, I'm already thinking of quilt patterns and baby showers. This card uses an adorable image of a new owl hatchling which I thought would make a great card for a new baby boy. The image came from the Dragon's Lair Progressive Challenge (on their Facebook page.)
The little owlet is colored with chalks but I did his broken egg shell with ProMarkers. I also used ProMarkers on the background. I cut the image with one of my Pinpoint Rectangle dies from Memory Box.
I added two frames, one in navy blue and one in sky blue, both cut with Gina Marie dies. Since this is a masculine card, I kept it really CAS, adding only the tiny blue hearts and a simple, hand-tied, polka dot bow.

Well, we're halfway to the work week and I've had a really busy three days so far. As I glance at my calendar, it isn't going to get any quieter much before the weekend so for now, I'll just say "Happy Stamping" and be on my way. :-D NanaConnie
