Hi Winspiration :)

Just thought you might be able to help - I'm going to be making a New Baby card for SIL to give to her sis who's having a boy due in October. I'm nosing round for some nice cardstock to put behind the pop out words from the QVC TSV, or poss to make the 'outer' card to the pop up insert & I was wondering which, if any, of the moondust cards might be closest to a baby/pale/pastel blue? I know it's got nothing to do your photography, but it's a little hard to tell from the FoilPlay site.

It's everything to do with my photography, but I'm afraid it is hideously difficult to accurately represent the colours of those moondust cards (and the mirror card) in a photo. What's on the site now is about my fourth attempt! Even if you look on the manufacturer's (http://www.southfield-stationers.co.uk/a4bulk/category.php?category=20) site, that doesn't give a much better representation, unfortunately.

Anyway, in answer to your actual question, the closest to baby or pastel blue is the aquamarine :)

Ta muchly, I was thinking that would be the one

I know it must be a swine to take a decent pic of, which is what I meant by it not being your photography :)

Hi wellie, this card is also known as stardream if that helps you find it. Craftwork sell it and they have free p+p till the end of the month.

Ta Sammykaye :) As it happens, SIL has had yet another falling out with her sister, & it's quite a nasty one so I think SIL has decided she doesn't want to spend any time & effort making a card - or indeed even buying a cheapie one for that matter :rolleyes: From what she said last night her sister is about to return all the hand knitted items that SIL has been making for the new baby along with any other items she's bought for them, telling their mum that she isn't a charity case :eek: Not good

Oh, Dr Sammykaye, I'm sure you didn't mean to, but not sure if it's too polite to mention another outlet in Wins own sponsored section, might be a bit like standing in the middle of Tesco and yelling "Shop at Asda instead":p

Hope you don't mind me saying this:o

Doh! Sorry Win! To be honest I always come into the forum through the "new posts" link and I don't even look at which section they were posted it.
I hope the alternate name (Stardream) was useful but if anyone can, please delete my previous post.
