It was my pleasure to hostess this week's TSC! The challenge was to make a baby card without an image of a baby or the color P I N K. (Simple RULZ but I have found that some find it VERY HARD to follow) In this sample, I used a technique I learned from Stamp TV by scoring to add texture grid. The sentiment was stamped using a clear stamp I got from Michael's bargain bin. In most cases, blue stands for a boy baby so what better way to signify a "boy" than a choo choo train; the MS train border punch is perfect for this. Part of the challenge was to add BLING for extra points so I chose to use Dew Drops in each corner of the sentiment panel. Added dotted swiss ribbon to soften it up since it is a baby card. Went together quick and easy!
Anyone is welcome to play along on our Twisted Sister Challenges (TSC). Come join us.

Oh, cute, love that train punch. Not sure if I have seen that punch before, but it sure looks good on your cute card. So nice to see you used pink, your favorite color. Yeah, little girls, like trains, too. I have no idea who you are talking about - not following the rulz.
