Sweet Baby

Good Sunday morning all!  I thought this sweet card might be just the thing to bring a smile to your face!  I started with the Double Stitched Rectangles and matted up several of them in white.  I pulled out an older flower set called Stitched Doodle Flowers and cut the pieces in a variety of pastel tones.  I layered them all up differently to give them a whimsical look and added leaves cut from Khaki and dark green card.  I arranged the flowers in opposite corners around the smallest rectangle.  I cut the kangaroo and baby from the Zoo Animals set and glued it in the lower corner.  Using the Newborn Sentiments set, I cut the Sweet Baby out of lilac card and glued it above.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/4"  x  7 1/2" in size.  All for now. Sue x

Hi Sue from a cold very blustery and miserable Lancashire, but as is the norm you've done what you hoped, put a smile on my face. As soon as this pretty picture loaded I wondered if it was a brand new sample and the new baby dies soon confirmed my curiosity, we've not seen those flowers for ages Sue. I would imagine that the festive season will be coming early where you are lol I do hope you'll make the right decision again.
Sending love and thoughts to you both and to all that pop into Particraft this Sunday. ......

STAY SAFE KEEP CARING KEEP CRAFTING xxx ❤
