Little Princess

Hello friends,
Spring has sprung! My plants are shaking off the brrrr of winter & my roses are in full bloom!
Today I have a card I made for a teacher who's having her first baby in a few short weeks!
Here it is:
I luv making baby girl cards. *Ü*  It begs for some of my favorite things: buttons, ribbon/lace, embossing, pearls, doilies---> all of which are on this card. And when it comes to baby cards, there is no CASing for me---> more is more! I did a bit of box pleating a la Anna Griffin. I luuuuuv paper pleating on cards! Then I embossed the pink panel and added little pearls with my Viva pen. I also used the Baby Onesie Dienamics and Stamp set and the button borders dienamics from MFT. I threaded a strip of the pattern paper through the buttons to coordinate.

I used this week's MFT sketch:
Thanks so much for peeking today!
Tootles!
