Lily of the Valley Christening card

Hello everyone,

I'm sorry that posts are still a bit scarce round here but other things are demanding attention right now. However, as we attended a Christening last week, I had to make a card for gorgeous baby Joshua, and pulled out my Lily of the Valley Christening stamp.



I used Nestabilities Labels 10 to stamp the baby on and used a technique I saw somewhere online to have the Christening robe hang over the edge of the die cut rather that be cut off on its journey through the die cut machine. For some reason the baby looks a bit suntanned in the photo but its a lot paler in real life.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:-

Papertake Weekly challenge which is to make a non square card and anything goes.
Simon Says Stamps challenge which is to make a masculine card and is this is for a baby boy, I think it qualifies.
Inspire Me Fridays which is anything goes.

Thanks for stopping by

Hugs
Carol x
