Baby Card featuring a Marker Batik Background

l have been playing around with glossy cardstock and found a technique new to me - Marker Batik.
Easy and doesn't make a big mess! All you need are some Stampin' Up Markers, glossy cardstock, plastic wrap, and some water in a spray bottle. Choose three markers, scribble on the plastic wrap and then spritz with water. Lay your glossy cardstock down, turn it over and use your hands to crinkle the plastic. Wrap the plastic edges over and leave to dry. Love the results!

In this baby card I used the marker combination of Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach and Sweet Sugarplum.
I used the Better Together stamp set for the sentiment and safety pin.  Both were stamped and embossed on vellum with white embossing powder.  I fussy cut the safety pin out. It made the perfect embellishment with the ribbon. Pink enamel shapes from the Subtles collection comlpeted the embellishment of the sentiment.
