Another card using the rainy day papers and the image is coloured with brush markers and pergamano pens. It looks like the wellie boot paper is upside down but it is just the topper making it look like it is, cos if you look at the bottom they are both ways

Flourgirl - gorgeous card, I really like those rainy day papers, they look fab with the image.
Rusty - your card is beautiful, and that stamp is divine!! She is beautifully coloured in. I think those gorjuss stamps have only just come out and are really hard to get hold of. I love her fringe!
OAP - lovely cards too, I've not really seen many sugar nellie stamps but these are fab, my favourite is the blue one too!
Rainmac - really classy, pretty card and I love the box for your Mum - seeing your creations really makes me want to dig my cross stitch bits out.

Hi All,
It's a good job I had a practice with that pram embellishment as the very next day my friend had a baby boy. I've made her card as my entry to the crafty place challenge ( and have posted it there too but can't put it on my blog yet as I don't want her to see it on the blog before she gets it in the post.)

I'm loving all these stamped images but am rubbish at colouring in. Maybe I need some new pens...........

I'm trying to find the words to a poem that I read once to put in my friends new baby card. It was all about how when your children go up would you rather they remember living in an immaculate house or they remember you as a Mum who did everything with them and was there for them. Sadly, I have no idea of the first line, author or title. Does it ring amy bells with anyone?
