For my card today I used the New Baby designed by Sylvia Zet of Wee Stamps for Whimsy stamps. This sweetie was colored with Copics and Promarkers, adding touches of Prisma Glitter to the clouds. The base and double matting is Bazzill and the DP is from a very old October Afternoon Ducks in a Row paper pad. For the horizontal grosgrain ribbon I used diaper pins as sliders. The SWEET diecut is from the new Sweet As Candy - Large Word Die designed by Simonne Clay for Whimsy Stamps.  A few wee baby bottles and pearls and that's it!! Please let me say that IRL the blues do match but my photography skills are non-existent. Thanks to Suzan for trying to correct my neophyte skills....smiles!!! Do any of you have those same crazy problems???

For my card I inked up the absolutely darling Mary designed by the incomparable Sylvia Zet of Wee Stamps for Whimsy Stamps. What a delightful throwback to that sweet nursery rhyme from our past!! The image was colored with Copics and Promarkers, adding a bit of Prisma Glitter to the lace ruffles. I only used some grosgrain ribbon for the left vertical adding some little sheep buttons I found in my stash and a flat bow.
