Expecting.....


Good day to all of you. Well it definitely has turned cold here. I even had to wear a jacket today!!!  Brrrr...... I am hearing snow in the forecast and am not liking it at all.  Today I am happy to show you a card I made for my DIL birthday!!!  She is expecting and I thought this beautiful image from Sweet Pea Stamps called Expecting was perfect!!!  I love the way the artist ching chou kuik gives her lovlies just the most beautiful faces. 


I colored my image with copic and then matched her with some Autumn colored DP. I distressed and glittered the matting around her to give some extra sparkle along with many parts of the image. Got to have that bling!!!.  I made a flower out of ribbon and placed it in the center of a Prima flower and that sat on some seam binding ribbon tied together into a bow.  I hope she will enjoy her as much as I did making my card!
