Babies






a Friend of mine had a baby on saturday. Another friend is having hers tomorrow, and there's still quite a few that are expecting, so I thought I'd better start making some baby cards. Here's two of them I made this morning. I tend to make baby girl cards (maybe because I have a girl). Well maybe it's time to make some boy cards.




Recipe
Baby Girl card:
paper: pink pirouette, choc.chip, very vanilla
Stamps: I'm Here (retired), word on word (retired)

Sorry most of the stamp sets I used are retired, but I don't have many current baby sets.
