Scor-Pal Challenge -- Pink or Blue

The Scor-Pal Blog Team was given a color choice for this month's "More Than One Score" challenge -- pink or blue.  With those choices, a baby card was the obvious way to go.  I chose blue and made a curved side-step card, using images from an MFP Stamp Shop set called Bundle of Joy.

CCEE1545 - Look for Circles Day

Frances is our CCEE Stampers hostess for the month of November, and she tells us that November 2nd was Look for Circles Day.  We were to create a card featuring circles -- how many can we include on our card?  I'm not sure how many circles are on this card, and to tell the truth I don't think I want to try to count them.  When I saw the word "circles" in the challenge description, the words "bokeh technique" screamed in my ear.  I had to make a baby shower card for a friend of my daughter's, who is having a little girl.  My daughter showed me a photo of the baby's room and it was sort of pinky-peach and aqua.  So I decided to make that card for my CCEE card today.

Check out the CCEE Stampers blog and see how many circles are on there today.

OCT. 27- GIFT CARD HOLDER by Vickie
OCT. 29- Baby Garland by Sandy

Let's get started !!

As the theme of the Blog Hop is "It's All about the Kids," I've decided to relate a little story about one particular kid during the week.  Her name is Susie!  Today's card announces Susie to the world.   If you've followed my blog at all, you know I love to make fun-fold cards.  Today's card is a Building Block Card.

As you can see, when you open the card, the "blocks" pop out of the valley fold inside.   I added a little bling to the inside -- baby hands and feet.

Here is a close-up of the blocks (prior to my adding the bling).  A little hint:  To make adhering small die-cut pieces easier, put some double-sided adhesive (either a sheet or strips) on the back of the card stock before you cut them out.  That way you don't have to try to add glue after the pieces are cut. 

For this card I used MFP Stamp Shop set Bundle of Joy.
