Babies, babies, everywhere!

Hey peeps - thankyou to everyone who is following my blog so far!

today I have been mostly working on a baby card for a customer. Have done a few baby cards recently - there has gotta be a baby boom going on! - but all the cards I have done have been for boys, so you can imagine how I squealed in excitement at the thought of using pinks and  lace and flowers!!!

Its finished, well, as finished as it can be...the blooming printer decided to run out of ink so I still have to print out the baby's name, birth date and weight for the frame on the right, but its as finished as I can get it for the moment :)

I went for a trifold card (one of my favs to make) in a baby pink using cream card to stamp on. took a chance on rounding the corners off - 1st time I have done this on ALL the corners...glad I did. think it gives a softer look to the card.




(they are a bit dark - my craft room light is AWFUL!!!)

I incorporated some Tim Holtz idea-ology tickets as the customer wanted the card to complement a present they had bought - a cute 'admits one to the world' framed ticket from notonthehighstreet.com.

I got to use my Martha Stewart edge punch too - LOVE IT!!!! soooooooo pretty! Roll on next payday...got my eye on the double loop round the page set! lol

oooooo - incase anyone is wondering... the panel in the middle - the white tab with the ribbon comes out and unfolds to give a nice 'secret' area to write your message :)

well, I think I'm going to go and rest my weary eyes now. Thanks for reading my ramble guys! 
speak soon.xxx
