Today's card is a little gem created using a wonderful sketch by Jen Mitchell over a Freshly Made Sketches:

So clean and simple! My card came together in no time at all and I just love how the colors work together:

I wanted to create a gender neutral baby card and this striped pattern paper from the Birds of a Feather Designer Paper Series worked perfectly for me! I chose soft complimenting colors from various papers and used my 3/16" corner punch to add a tad more softness to the card. A bit of Primrose Petals cardstock just peeking out is a nice compliment to the soft colors. The zig-zag was created using my Finishing Touches Edgelits Dies and the circles were created with my 1" circle punch. That's it!

Design note: I used a bit of post it tape to tack the zig zag edgelit die to the cardstock so it wouldn't move during the cutting process.
