I stamped the onsie in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a scrap piece of Bright & Beautiful dsp. Using sharp Scissors I fussy cut around the image, because I couldn’t find the dies! Using the dark Boho Blue Blends Pen, I coloured in the neck, leg and arm bands of the onsie and added the piece to the die cut label.
