Penny Black Saturday Challenge......Welcome Home

It's week 47 over at Penny Black Saturday and the theme this week set by the lovely Kath is.......
Shapes


I was asked to make a card by a colleague at our Glasgow Admin centre........she wanted the card for a baby that had been born prematurely and had spent time in Hospital since being born, but needed a card for when the baby came home! She said she could not find anything suitable in the shops and would i be able to make something for her. I have used this gorgeous PB image so much for baby cards.............i think it works very well. As there are several different shapes on this card it works for the challenge too! :)

Image.... PB 'In a Nutshell'
Papers.... Making Memories & Anna Griffin
Letter Stamps.... Hero Arts
Nestabilities
Cuttlebug
Inks.... Versafine & ColorBox Chalk
Watercolour pencils
Adornit.... Tiny Alpha Stickers
ribbon, button & twine from stash

Back to work for me today.......hope we are a bit busier than of late............it's very hard to look like you're doing something when you actually have nothing to do!! and as we aren't allowed to chat in the office it can make for a very long boring day!!!!!

Catch up with you all later ;-D

Hugs

  1. Gorgeous card Carol, lovely blues and corner feature. I always like cards people make using blue, yet I rarely use that colour myself - must try harder !
