Welcome Little One

Hello.
My mum was a great knitter, and she made some gorgeous baby blankets. Whenever we asked her who they were for she would say ' I don't know, but a baby will come along' - and she was right, news of a baby would always reach her.
So, that's what I'm doing with this card, waiting for a baby to turn up :o)


I chose this pretty turquoise colour, that can be used for a girl or a boy, and I've indulged my metallic, gold obsession by using a gold panel. I wasn't sure about the gold on a baby card. What do you think? Does it work?  It's pretty IRL, but very hard to photo.

Love your baby card - it is adorable. Gold is hard to photograph - I thought it was yellow, either one is perfect for a baby card. Congrats on being one of the picks on Freshly Made Sketches.
