Paper Players #112 - More Baby Boy Cards!

Hello all,
 
I am back again with a cute little baby boy club.  If you have been watching my blog, you may recognize this card.  I made this card as announcements/thank you cards for when my second daughter was born.  I made 35 of them!  It is a beautiful card, easy to replicate and beautiful!  I did have a lot of circles lying around!  ha ha ha...and I also had some help from my mom and sister...so it did go by a lot faster.  I didn't know the sex of Rylea before she was born, so everything waited until after she was born to be made!!  good thing I didn't make them on my premonition, otherwise i would have had 35 boy cards lying around!!  ha ha ha...anyways, the colour challenge at The Paper Players this week is:
So I decided to play along with this baby!!  The colours look soo cute together!
Here is my card:
Recipe:
Stamps: Baby Bundle, A Word For You
Ink: Jet Black Staz on, Baja breeze marker.
Cardstock: Naturals White, Baja Breeze, Basic Gray.
Tools & Accessories: 1/4" White Sweater trim, scallopped dotted ribbon border punch, SNAIL, Sticky Strip, Big Shot, Fancy Fan EF, simply scored.
 
I love this card, I did change up a few details from my original card...but they are both soo cute!!  Baja breeze is such a good baby boy colour, the blue is not too light, but not too dark!! 
The sweater trim in the holiday mini is soo beautiful!  I love how easy it is to work with, so nice and soft!!  This is defiantely a beautiful card to make for announcements and it is easy to replicate!  Thanks for checking me out today!
