So Many Babies!

I know about 5 people that are pregnant right now. I was pretty psyched when I saw Kristina Werner's color challenge this morning because i need to make some boy cards and it gave me just the push I needed to get it done! This one is for a baby shower this weekend that I cannot make because I'm working. But I'll send this one shortly after the mom's shower! (so i cannot say who). :)
The dsp came from the level 3 hostess set in the current SU, idea book and catalog. It's really cool, i'm not sure about my rolling water, but what can you do... :)
The buttons in the photo dont look straight, but they do when you're looking at the card... so funny. :)
I hope you have time to stamp something cool today.

P.S. For Donna~~ I use a waterbrush and picked the color up from my inkpad and rolled it on... like rolling grass or water and just kept making layers. The whole card took me about 30 minutes. :)

Selene that is funny what you said about the water, I actually rarely read the comment from the author, I just look at the pictures, BUT the water intrigued me and I was hoping you described in your post how you did it >LOL Maybe next time huh? Have a great day ~Donna

hello
I think you did a great job of making the water look rolling...I thought the buttons were purposely set crooked to add to the illusion of rolling water. who knew!!!
I plan to CASE the button idea to add that illusion to a card with ships
