Welcome Baby cards

Sorry to be MIA for a while, but I'm back with some more cards to show you.  Today I have a couple of welcome baby cards.

Both of these cards are made with Pollycraft Little Stars digi images.  The pink one is Moon Lullaby and the blue card is Sent from Above.  I've colored them both with Copic markers and added a sentiment from TAC.  The background paper is from my stash of scrapbooking papers, and I am not sure of the source.  The pink flower is hand made, and the yellow flower is Bitty Blossoms with a button.  The Spellbinders Nestabilities are Eyelet Circles (above) and Lacey Circles (below).

Red Rubber Designs Tiger Face

Today I have another man-card, using the Red Rubber Design stamp called Tiger Face.  I like this image.  It is very masculine.  I used a piece of the Winchester Patterned Cardstock collection for the background and a triangle of burlap over it.  Adding another masculine touch with a twist of Neutral Twill ribbon, a string of the burlap and a button, it finished off the card.  The image is colored with Copics (E13, E15, E19, YG01, C1, W9) and cut out with Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels 1.  The image is layered on dark brown cardstock.
