That's what my daughter Toni told me last night when I showed her this card. Well, the conversation started like this....
Me: Mom (that's what I call her), what do you think of this card?
Toni: I like it! mmmm, but, is that a boy or a girl?
Me: It's a boy!
Toni: Boys don't wear pink!
Me: Well, real men wear pink!
Toni: Only in your cards, Mom!
This cute little boy bundled in pink and brown is from Stampendous. I got him a year ago from Eclectic Paperie and the stamp is currently on 
sale. The layout is from Jen's of Iheart2Stamp Sketch For You To Try couple of weeks ago and the color combination is from Kristina Werner's color inspiration from last week. I know I'm running a week behind...LOL!

cute card and cuter story! Reminds me when my daughter was little she was into My Little Ponies. She told me one day that she could tell a boy pony from a girl pony because the girls had eyelashes. LOL!
Well, I happen to like your lil boy here in pink! lol Very adorable!

Cute card and that color is perfect on him!
Catherine this is adorable, fantastic image and gorgeous use of colours. hugs rachxx

LOL...yep, real men do wear pink...and purple! My brother is getting married in February and he insisted that the wedding colours had to include purple, so that he can wear a purple shirt!!!

Some 'real' men can get-a-way w/girly colors - my man isn't one of them! LOL - everytime he does - some 'guy' always ends up hitting on him, LOL ;)

Cute...both the card and your conversation with your daughter :)
Yes, real boys do wear pink....my 11 year old son (and boy is he a true boy) insisted on wearing a pink shirt to graduation last year. I went on a mad search for a boys pink dress shirt!!!! I did find one and he looked so fab with his khakis and pink!!!! I love your card and the colors are perfect!!! Great job.
Pink is the new blue! :) I love it. And I love that you call her Mom... what is the story behind that? It makes me smile!
Totally cute! he looks adorable in pink!
