MONO..DT

 Hello everyone,

Wednesday has sprung into action and I'm hostess over at Little Red Wagon  and my theme for all is..  MONOCHROMATIC - use only one colour but all shades, and if the background sneaks in another colour, but only a lit bit, I wont look.

Here is my project...


I scored these cute little badges in a dollar shop and thought they would make neat baby embellishments..


I also got some new papers...


and die cut all these outfits, that I shared awhile ago..


paper pieced, lots of them.


but this one is for a baby boy and I went with all the blues I could fine..


but on closer inspection I saw colour in my background papers,
 so that's why I'm being a kind hostess this week and letting some soft colours sneak through..


I love these cute overalls and remember my boys wearing them..


I love the die cut letters in navy..
last time I used army green and it worked a treat them too.




and I added a little boat....done!


So come on over and play HERE

Thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you tomorrow..


Luv CHRISSYxx

Great idea to use the badge as an embellishment on your beautiful baby boy card. I love those little outfits, remind me of dress-up dolls. xx

Those badges were a great find, worked great as an embellishment on your sweet card, my nephews wore those clothes too when they were little, they are now in their 40's :) Such sweet papers to go with them!
