I don't normally use such pastel tones together, so of course my mind kept going back to "baby". And then I just forced the issue and took out the Work of Art stamp set. That got me on track. Without a real pattern in mind, I just let myself play with several of the stamps and the colours. And I liked the result. Then I thought to myself, why not add one of those Spiral Flowers? I have the In-Color Designer Paper Stack so using the polka dot patterned sheet in the Strawberry Slush was a given. I really crumpled up the cut out spiral before rolling it and gluing it. The effect was so much less stiff and added a lot of charm. A couple of leaf stems cut with the Bird Builder punch and outlined with my Stampin' Chalk Marker finished it off.
The card doesn't look a bit "baby" to me. I'm so glad! For more of the cards made for this challenge, check out Colour Me...!
