I decided to limit myself to 3 colors (+neutral color) when making the baby boy cards. I chose Not Quite Navy, Baja Breeze and Mellow Moss.
Here I used a couple of dinosaurs from the Prehistoric Pals stamp set. I used the Coluzzle to cut the circles and a white Signo pen to draw the scallops and lines. the sentiment is from Short and Sweet.
Here we have the lion from the Wild About you stamp set. I inked it up with mellow moss and then used a not quite navy marker. I used the Coluzzle again and a white Signo pen for the "stitches". The background is a patterned paper from Baja Breeze Patterns Designer Series Paper. I used the sentiment from Short and Sweet again and my word window punch.
Here we have the alligator/crocodile and the bird from Wild About you. I cheated a bit and used and icelandic sentiment (it says "Welcome to the world little baby"). The background is fron the same package as on the card above. I wanted to use a ribbon but didn't have one that matched the colors so I used my Signo pen to draw stitches on a paper strip.
Pretty simple cards but I like the color combo, although the mellow moss doesn't look much like green.

We finally got a little bit of snow yesterday and today. My DS has been waiting for the winter to come so he could play in the snow. So I had to get him out to play early this morning, before I went to work.
As you can see he's all bundled up, it's freezing cold. I love his hat, I bought it in Iceland, it's expensive but it's my favorite brand (in children's hats). It's from a Finnish company named Kivat.

I've already made the cards for my next post ;)
You can probably guess what stamp set I'll be using ;)
