Hi, guys! Just popping by while hubby is watching the footy (I gather England aren't doing very well, judging by his groans!) This is a Christening card I made for my friend's adorable little granddaughter. The image is Baby Christening by Lili of the Valley and the sentiment is also by LotV. The papers are by Prima from the Introspection 6 x 6 paper pad. The ribbon and gems are from stash. Thanks for looking! love Mags B x

How do I know so much detail? Because I had that outfit when I was a teen! I wasn't as tall and slim, but how I loved those clothes!! The picture here looks a little faded, as usual (I blame the light!) but that's not a bad thing, because the orange card is very bright. The papers are from the Paisley Road stack by Prima, which was part of the blog candy I won from the lovely Joey The patterns and colours are so bright and retro - yes, children, we really did think that fuchsia, orange and lime green looked good together. The flowers are made with a retro punch, the patterned ones are from the dp, curled, and covered with transparent glitter embossing powder. The gleam doesn't show here, but it's so pretty! I'm v...
