Bienvenue, baby!

This card certainly gave me a headache today! I fiddled so much with it, and I am finally happy.  I couldn't get the papers right, I couldn't decide on what the focus would be on, it just wasn't working today. Until tonight. It just dawned on me what it should be like, so Voila!  A card for my neighbour maybe, or one of the other 11 people I know pregnant this year!!!

I am entering this in the challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches.  Be sure and check them out and join them! It's so much fun to have a sketch to start with :)  I glued the two strips of white paper to my card, but it needed something in the middle, so I put a small piece of Nursery Sweet DSP in the middle. It still looks like the sketch, kinda....And, of course I rotated the sketch. I am really loving the portrait style at the moment. My last 10 cards or so have been portrait!!

Thanks for stopping in.

  5. This is just AMAZING!!! I love your flip and the background textured with one piece that's not is very eye catching. Fab job on those sweet little animals too, this is a WINNER in my book!
