New Year New Baby

So that is the end of 2010 and I thought I would say goodbye to the Year with a New baby Girl Card, something to make you all smile. I can't say that I'm sad to see the back of this year having had my fair share of health issues many of them still ongoing but I'm looking ahead into 2011 hoping to resolve some of them with new meds.
I have however met some wonderful new friends here and had the support of ongoing friends here too so the year wasn't all bad.
I'm still saying prayers for my wonderful friend Katie and I'll be doing some fundraising to help her in 2011 to which I hope you will lend your support.
Happy New Year everyone, I'm wishing you all good health for 2011

...............................................................
So onto my Baby girl/ Christening Card

Baby Girl is by the talented Mo Manning and can be purchased here

Coloured with Copic Markers, the cross was made with a Martha stewart border punch I punched both sides of 2 strips of paper then used the airbrush to add a lemon tint to the edges of the cross I also cut slits in the cross to thread in the lemon ribbon and added a lemon rose to the center.




A close up image of the Baby Girl pretty in lemon with glittered petticoat and boddice.

Such a beautiful baby care Jak and something I really need to do. Our family welcomed a new baby-girl cousin yesterday and I should send a card to the new parents. Your card has inspired me so.

Happy New Year to you!

Your work is always beautiful wish I was half as good. Have a great New Year and am expecting even better stuff next year, lol.

This is absolutely gorgeous as uasual. Your work inspires me. I could not agree with you more about being happy 2010 came to an end. Even though God has been very good to us , I still would have preferred not to have 3 car accidents in the family or spending some time in hospital. So here's to hoping both of us have a better year!
