I'm getting this card in just under the wire for CAS-ual Friday CFC #42 ~ Hey Baby! I realized tonight that I don't have very many baby-type stamps or sentiments, so I had to go a different direction.
I had my new Memory Box egg die on my craft table and it just so happens to match the floral spray stamps from my WPlus9 Pocketful set! I wanted to speckle the egg, so I sprayed a piece of cardstock with walnut ink spray. Tip: spray a whole piece of paper first and then die cut the piece you want (otherwise you'll get an overly-speckled egg, trust me). I colored the egg with a Copic and cut the top off freehand.
In the end I stopped myself from putting on a bow, and I'm happy I did! I'm off to link up to CAS-ual Fridays and I'm off to bed.
Thanks for visiting!
