Blooming.....

I made this card last year for my hubby to give to a work colleague who was leaving to have a baby.
The card base is a standard A5 and the papers are from a First Edition pad. I cut the expectant mum from white card then coloured the cut-out with a darkish ProMarker (the mum is afro-Caribbean) and added a checked dress and red shoes. I adhered her with foam pads to a central panel embossed with a swiss dots embossing folder. The panel was adred to the card front with foam tape. I added 'Best Wishes' cut from black card and 'GILL' cut from pink glitter card. A large bloom (12 for £1 from The Range- bargain!!) sheer bow and trio of pearls completes the card.
Carts used:
Expectant Mum- Wrap It Up
Best Wishes- Paper Lace 2
GILL- Suburbia
Thanks for dropping by!
