Another Welcome to the World!



Hi Everyone!!
Another baby card! Another friend has just had a BEAUTIFUL baby girl! Can't keep up with these baby cards at the mo! Not that I'm complaining - they give me an excuse to work on something sweet and overflow with the cuteness factor LOL!!

This card uses the Midnight Madness sketch #35 & Sweet Stop Sketch (basically the same this week), and is that adorable Penny Black hedgie image - Baby Hammock.Thank you to Kris (Stamping in Kansas) for sending me these cuties!
I've used CM cardstock in Clay and Pink Lemonade, and the dp is also CM from a n/a customer gift.
I couldn't resist a bit of sparkle, with Yellow Stickles on the daisies, Waterfall Stickles on the butterfly, and Stardust Stickles on the tips on the flowers.
The Kaisercraft flowers, a few little pearls (thanks Janice!!) and tiny pink ribbon finished it off. :)
