I did this for the Sept. 07 VSN challenge to make a baby card. The timing was perfect, as a friend of mine just had a baby boy two weeks ago, and I hadn't yet got around to making a card.
The inspiration came from, ironically, a shopping trip that I did not want to be on. I had told my DH a couple months ago that I was taking part in VSN this weekend, and that we weren't planning anything else. However, some friends asked about doing dinner Fri. evening, and since we hadn't seen them in a couple months, I agreed I could make an exception. The deal was that we were eating, then going straight home so I could stamp. DH, however, wanted to go shopping for new clothes for DS afterward. I told him that the boy could wait - mama needed to stamp. He was driving, though, so I didn't have a choice, and we ended up shopping.
When we got home, I started playing catch-up for all the challenges I had missed. When I got to this one, the first thing that popped into my head was a baby blue and chocolate brown striped sleeper we had just bought a couple hours before. Hence the color scheme and the stripes!!
