Littlest one plus one!

Happy Saturday everyone - isn't it great to be at the weekend?!  I'm here with a card for a friend who is expecting her baby to be born any time now!


I used the MFT a la modes Bundle of Baby set which I stamped on Make It Colour Blending Card and coloured with Copics.  I matched her up with My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline: Howdy Doody papers and My Favorite Things die-Namics Decorative Circle Tag STAXButterflies dies and created the border with the  Simply Scallops medium die. I am entering this into this month's My Favorite Things February Guest Designer sketch.

I also have this card to show today that I made for this week's There She Goes challenge for love is in the air.  I took the opportunity to make an engagement card for my cousin who asked his lovely long term lady to marry him this week!  Here is it using Love Birds...




Before I go, don't forget to check out all the new goodies in the Quixotic Paperie store and the January clearance section for some bargains!

Hello Mary,
This is one of the best baby cards I have seen in a long while. It is bright and beautiful. The image relates many feelings of a new mum.
Your triple scalloped edges look fabulous.
Hope you are keeping warm!
