Baby card....



One of my neighbours asked me to make a card for her new granddaughter who is due to arrive in September....its a special baby because its an IVF baby  which has taken a long long time to get to this stage..  Angela knew what she wanted some knitting on cocktails sticks, lace, ribbon and pearls...hopefully she will be pleased with her card and 'Mum' too.
I had to buy the little knitted embellishments as I have given all my wool to charity only last month, isn't it typical?
Backing papers I have had for a very long time so I cant even tell you where they came from, the pretty corners are one of the La La land Dies, spellbinders tag die, Martha Stewart border punch and small flower punch.

Sorry the photographs not very good..

Thanks for stopping by

Oh Anne - this has to be one of my most favorite cards that you have made. How in the world did you find that little sweater!! I am having loads of trouble with Bloglovin' - first they are not putting my posts on their feed and next I no longer get a feed from them. I am going to keep writing them and writing them until they answer me!! Thanks goodness I still get your blog through e-mail!!
