IBFS #3 and Summer of Color!

I needed a little inspiration to finally create a baby card for my niece who just had a sweet little girl.  When I saw I Brake For Stamps challenge this week and using polka dots for inspiration, I knew what needed to be done.  The picture was copied off my niece's Facebook page, so the quality is not the best, but I think she will just love the idea!  One of my sweet blogging friend's Nan, told me about The Summer of Color, "Pink" challenge, so we are having our visit over there! 
I did the Cuttlebug Highlights technique from the Technique Junkies.  When I saw the reverse side of the embossed and colored folder, I actually liked that better and thought the stamped image would be more detailed.  The baby frame stamp is from I Brake For Stamps and so perfect for welcoming a cutie pie into the world. 
Our cute inspiration!

Thank you for stopping by and there is still time to get in on this weeks challenge.  BTW, I thought the commenting issue was resolved on Blogger, but I noticed I am having problems once again.  Anyone else still battling the comment thing?

Adorable card and kids, too cute! I love that cut out center. Not sure if Blogger has been behaving, I just haven't been making my rounds.

Such a sweet baby card, she'll love it! Some blogs still don't work for me either. When I sign in, I uncheck the box that says 'keep me signed in' and that has helped with most blogs.
