Just Add Ink Challenge # 145


 Hi,
Its been a while since I've had the chance to take a little time with a card and not just whip one up in 5 min. Its been about 5 weeks since ive had the chance to update my blog as ive been busy learning how to become Mum. We have got little Alex in a pretty good routine already and we are only getting up 2am for a feed. So im getting sleep just in 2 blocks.
 Any way ,this card  I have made for a friend who had her baby last week. I have made the card to match a nappy cake that i have also made for her which you can check out in another post.

 So i have picked these colours to match the toy Elephant in my nappy cake. Very Vanilla , Early Espresso and Buckaroo Blue (trying to use up some of my old stuff). again most of my card is made from leftovers from other cards so that im not using up all the stuff that i have (so much unopened DSP). Anyway i have used this weeks Just add Ink Sketch Challenge for my card.
 Click Here to join in the fun.
Till next time
