New Baby

*******

I haven't done any colouring in for ages and it took me three attempts to colour this stamp. Also I've been soooo busy making cards I haven't had time to blog - AND I've got loads of emails in my inbox that need attention.

I used my NEW - and one and only - M-Bossabilities folder (Imperial ) for the background. This is such a bad pic but the best I could do. It is not much clearer even if you click the pic.
* New photo's - a bit better than the originals lol.







Another new aquisition is the lovely Floral Ovals die. I will be using this and the folder a lot :)
The sentiment circle was made in Publisher as usual.
Both of these are fixed with foam tape/pads





Finished with seam binding ribbon and bow and  flower.

Hello Irene,

Those new dies look rather nice, something else for the wish list I think.

Your card is really pretty, the soft colours work perfectly for a baby card.
