The little baby, a boy, is called Max and I just had to use this super-cute image from The Clipart Fairy - especially after what I saw Kerry had done with it.
The digi image, The Stork Delivers, was coloured using Copic sketch markers:
- Skin: E00, E21, E51
- Hair: E11, E13
- Blanket: BG11, BG32, B00
- Stork - Feathers: E40, E41
- Stork: Bill/Legs: R20, E40
The corners of the panel were rounded using the large XCut corner rounder punch and then matted onto a panel of aqua card from the DCWV Brights Mat Stack, die cut using a Labels 1 Nestabilities die.
A length of cream broderie anglaise and aqua Dovecraft grosgrain ribbon were wrapped around the join of two patterned papers from the DCWV Nana's Nursery Baby Boy mat stack and then matted onto the same aqua card.
A computer-generated sentiment was die cut using a classic circle die from Nestabilities and matted onto a circle of the blossom paper and a scalloped circle of the aqua card.
Three cream paper flowers from the Prima Botanicals Mix were adhered over the bottom left corner of the image and aqua dewdrops (Patti's Pretties) were added in their centres. The sentiment was added over the bottom right corner of the image.
I also decorated the inside of the card, but kept it simple, just using strips of the aqua card and the blossom paper.
