Papertrey Ink Blog Hop - Boys to Men

 


It's time for this month's Papertrey Ink Blog Hop!

The Theme:
Boys to Men

As much as I'd like to make a card that pays homage to the Boys II Men R&B group - that is probably not what PTI is looking for here!

Instead, I made a masculine baby card!!!

And, just in case you are wondering -- YES! THAT BORDER IS SEWN!

And, just in case you are wondering -- YES! I DID THAT!

So here it is - in all it's masculine, sewn border, baby birthday glory!

I cut out a little tie for the perfect accent to the onesie!


 
 

Thanks for stopping by for some Damask Love!

Happy Blog Hopping!

Supplies (All PTI unless otherwise mentioned)
Stamps: Background Basics: Woodgrain, Bitty Baby Blessings
Paper: Kraft, Rustic Cream, Dark Chocolate, Enchanted Evening
Ink: Ranger Archival Jet Black
Other: dafont.com (American Typewriter)
