Babies and blankets
Hi, guys! And a warm welcome to my new followers! Thanks for coming by!
I hope your week is going well. We had an exciting day yesterday, as the new tv digi-box, phone and Internet were installed! Everything seems to be working a wee bit faster and, even more importantly, we haven't lost the Internet in the last 24 hours!
I took the afternoon off, since the ironing is always with ye, and set up a mini-assembly line to make 4 baby cards:
It wasn't much quicker than doing them individually, since as usual I kept putting things down and being unable to find them a minute later! I also managed to sit on a pencil and stab myself in the bum! Now, that takes real talent!
Here's my favourite of the cards, I love the soft green Promarker colours:
I used a different colour combo for the face and hands, since I saw this video on skin tones by Kimberly Brown yesterday.
The image and the sentiment are both by Lili of the Valley The papers are all snippets, even the green card, the ribbon is white seam binding coloured with a Mint Green Promarker, and the broderie anglaise is from my sewing box. I added stickles round the sentiment, and that was that!
Challenges I'm entering: Lili's Little Fairies Monochrome
Pixie's Crafty Snippets Challenge
Right, I'm off to decorate a pizza with tomatoes and olives for our tea tonight. Thanks for looking!

Thanks for the tip about the rosettes. Won't tell you about the time I used a tiny clothes peg to keep the ends together - about how the whole peg got stuck - pulled it apart and the spring got me in the eye!!
