Here is a card that I created for a lady at work, who became a grandma for the very first time. I remember that feeling from not so long ago. It is the best feeling in the world.
My card is a CAS one, using Unity Stamps. My papers are all scraps, and it felt really great to do some paper piecing. I also die cut a few clouds from Memory Box, being sure to add a wee bit of sparkle from some Diamond Stickles. There are a couple of star sequins holding up my wash line.
I would like ot enter this card over at Shopping Our Stash #289, which is Winter Blues but not winter.
Also I would like to take this over to Pixie's Snippets Playground with #'s 267 and 268, where we are to use snippets, all the time!
It ended up that the wind and cold were worse than the snow storm. Go figure! Here is a photo that hubby took after things calmed a bit. Thanks for the visit!

Mary Anne,
This is so pretty I love the little heart flowers in the clouds and the "wash line" was a great idea. She is gonna love it.
P.S love your new pic on the top of the blog, just wish there wasn't snow there
What an adorable baby card and Congrats to your friend, Mary Anne! Those onesies hanging on the line are so cute! I also loved your blog heading picture of the snow scene! As much as I dislike snow the picture was so serene and beautiful! I have to agree...the wind and temps were the worst from this snowstorm. I hope by tomorrow it's all melted...what little bit we got! TFS and stay warm today! Hugs~
