Today's Color Challenge is perfect for the baby boy congratulations card I needed to make! I was going to do it in a stronger blue until I saw the challenge and then decided to go with the more aqua/turquoise blues.
I don't have SU colours but I think this is pretty close - an aqua shimmery cardstock, a white cardbase, an unknown inkspot in turquoise for the sentiment, and coloured pencils in matching shades for the mouse's clothes.
I embossed the aqua cs and then carefully cut out the centre rectangle to create a frame for the image. I popped it up on dimensionals, added the sentiment, and three small punched stars.

I really like the aqua. Maybe a darker blue would have been too strong. I think your gut instinct was right on the mark. This is absolutely gorgeously sweet!
