I was asked by a grade two class to make a card for their teacher who is having a baby boy. The image is from a local shop, so, like always, there is no manufacturer anywhere on the stamp. It was coloured with my Copics and the wings were glitterified with Stickles. The flowers, feathers and bling are from the local Chinese shop. The ribbon is from my stash. Cardstock is Bazzil and dp is Pebbles inc. Apologies for the bad photo, the colour is much nicer in real life!
Here is a close up of the image. The colour on this one is better. The image was cut out with a Nestie and the background was embossed with a Swiss dot Cuttlebug embossing folder.
The inside has tags for all the girls to write personal messages to their teache.
And here he is... my brand new little grandson and his sister. She is so proud to be a big sister.
She could not stop looking at him and was thrilled when he gripped her finger and wouldn't let go.
Here is the proud new mom with both her little darlings. Note the England babygrow - not my idea, but his father insisted. We made very sure that he has a Springbok outfit to wear (I actually think every member of the family went out and bought one, LOL)
Here is oupa, introducing Liam to his big sister. Such a precious photo.
There is just something so very special about a baby's feet. Look how small they are when his sister holds them.
Mom and baby are both doing very well. We thank God for the safe delivery of our precious little boy.
Have a great week everybody, I'll be back soon, but for now I am going to be very busy playing with my new baby!
Congratulations on your new granchild xx
