I followed the sketch from challenge 34 of Friday Sketchers for this card and was really pleased with it but I could scream at how bad the photos have come out and the card has already gone in the post. This photo is the best I could get of how the card looks yet the colours are still all wrong. The card is so tactile too: The soft cotton baby grow and fluffy duck, etc. It is for my step-daughter and her husband who had our first grandchild yesterday. It wasn't the birth one would hope for with an emergency cesarean and the baby whisked off to a special unit after swallowing fluid but all are doing well. I personalised the inside of the card by printing the insert with my own paper design and including the baby's names, date of birth and weight.
