Welcome to the world

I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas. 

Santa certainly visited our house and left lots of goodies. 

Unfortunately I have landed with a sore throat and cough and ended up in bed for a while. Still not to good but hopefully it will ease soon. 

On to my card. A lovely new arrival card. My son's friends had a new baby a couple of weeks ago and asked me to make a card. 

I do love making baby cards, they are so refreshing to make. 

I used Messy Rabbit image, Promarkers, Nesties, Sizzix hearts, Martha Stewart border punch and Craft Creations paper.

Anniversary

I have just come back from an evenings shopping. I took my in-laws to do there grocery shop and I did my dad's shopping and a little for myself. Tesco was actually fairly busy so it took some time to get through the checkout. It is a very miserable night so I got soaked into the bargain!

My card tonight is for my in-laws anniversary next week. 

It is a simple card but I think elegant. I needed to make something quick so here it is.
