This week's Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge is a pastel color palette. I have never really liked pastel colors. When I see pastel colors like this I immediately think - baby card!
While I have accumulated a few baby stamp sets I don't use them very often. I think the baby stamp set (Little Sunshine) in the Occasions Catalog is very versatile and not just for baby cards and gifts.
So here is my entry for the PPA 243 Color Challenge:
This card is very cute in person. I don't think the photo is capturing the card.
The card is a long card, 6" x 3 1/2" and the next panel is 1/4" smaller all around. I used the Something For Baby Bundle for my card. The background was created using the adorable Large Polka Dot Textured Impression Folder (Love it!). The circles were cut using the Circle Framelits Collection.
The inside is just as adorable. This stamp is from the Little Sunshine Stamp Set in the Occasions Catalog. While the stamp is a bubble frame it is setup that you can punch it out with the 1" circle punch. The small sweetheart punch is part of the Itty Bitty Punch set.
While I am not crazy about pastels I am very pleased with this card. Won't you play with the Pals this week as well?
Thanks for stopping by!

Here is a list of the materials used in my card and available through the StampinMojo online store.
Absolutely adorable, Michelle! I love how the circles are repeated in the DSP and in the embossing folder. The inside is cute, too! Thanks for joining Team Two this week!

Oh Susan, you created a winner! The shape of the card give the circle fit perfectly with the cut out shape of the pin, rubber ducky, and socks. It's the perfect baby card. Thanks for joining us this week at the Pals Paper Arts color challenge!

How Cute! I love that you tackled the colors with a lot of white space. And, of course, the TIEF mimics the baby elements you're featuring. Adorable! Thanks for playing with DT2 this week!
