Cindy (Mothermark) has challenged us to make a baby card for Pat Smethers new little bundle of joy! WaHooooooo, congrats Pat!
Thanks, Cindy!
I might have to come in the back door because you can't see my teddy bear. He and another one of his friends are inside the ark. I have it on very good authority.
The sweet Our Daily Bread Designs image was stamped and colored using copic markers. the waves were cut out and popped up. I added some white acrylic paint and glitter. The decorative border was added using a Spelbinders diecut with my easy peasy Spelbinders Grand Calibur diecut and embossing machine! The background dp was embossed using cuttlebug e/f. TFL

I believe you! I think there were supposed to be two of everything so there must be two bears. Like the folder you used for the bkdgrd. which looks like big bubbles on the sea.

Francie, this is adorable and so beautifully done! What gorgeous shades of blue, and I love the way you've popped up the water - great embossing folder too!

Francie,
This is gorgeous and adorable! The ark is darling with all the little critters - and the bears are busy eating the honey (as Anne said) - too busy to look out the portholes! Did you cut out your water/waves or is it a die? The waves are really cute!

The bears may be inside, but the horses are sticking their heads out to wee what's up! This is so very cute and adorable! I like how you have made the waves, all the blue and the bubble bg! A sweet card to welcome baby Jon!

Aw Francie... this is adorable! Love that Noah's Ark image. I'm not sure if that's DP or you sponged the bubble background, but WOW, it's fantastic! LOVE it!
