MIM & OLW: Baby Card

This week's One Layer Wednesday challenge is to use an inspiration photo from Pinterest. I decided to make a baby card! If you did not see my post yesterday, I recently found out that I'm expecting my first child. :) Here is the card, "Every Child Begins the World Again".

I think this card speaks to the idea of renewal and the hope that a new baby brings to the world. It also kind of reminds me of the hopeful feeling of spring after a long winter.

I used this photo as inspiration. I just loved the bright colors of the room and the unique design.

I am also entering this into PTI's Make It Monday challenge to use distressed edges in your card. I edged the card with Tea Dye ink and then distressed it with Tim Holtz's paper distresser tool. This is a great tool to make distressing your card much easier! It can also help to ink it before you distress. The wetness of the ink can make it tear a little easier.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a very sunny day today! :)
