Echo Park baby layout

Made this layout using the Little Girl line from Echo park..  the gray paper is embossed with a folder from the Word Collage cuttlebug folder set and then inked with pink ink. I followed the challenge over at Page Maps for the sketch and the colors. It was a super hard challenge for me to find a way to make the colors work together.. but I think I did alright. :)

These are the colors

This is the sketch

Very 1st Step Card

I made my very first step card!!! They are super easy I have no idea why I've never made one before. I used Echo Park's Wintertime line to make my card.

To make this card (in case you don't know how) You take a strip that is 12 inches long by as wide as you want (mine is 5 inches wide) and fold at 1 in, 2 in, 4 in, 6 in & 9 in. Simple. Then decorate how you want.

I am entering this into the following challenge:

Whimsical Designs - Winter Fun (bling.. I added irock gems to the bottom row of snow flakes)

Oh My Crafts Link Up Party

I am also using this as my entry for the Shop Pumpkin Spice DT call. I love Shop Pumpkin Spice and I'm so excited to have a chance to apply for their DT! Your project has to be something that makes you smile.. and making a new card and having it turn out good and be something I like makes me smile.. cuz I feel like I didn't waste time on it :)

Thanks for stoppin' by and have a great day!
