Welcome Baby

I used the gorgeous little digi image from Sugar Nellie for this one, the papers are old ones from my mile-high pile, and the letters are Making Memories and American Crafts


Coloured with promarkers. I used


Ivory, blush and soft peach for the skin


Blosom and dusky pink for the hat


Talking of babies, my two little men, Milo and Monty will be two soon. How time flies. When we last saw Milo, about a month ago, he was a silent little chappie, pointing to what he wanted, saying 'mama, dadda,' and that was about it. I was so delighted yesterday when he came on the phone and said chirpily 'lello Ma. Lub you Ma. Bye bye.' Grandchildren bring such joy!
