a baby is a blessing

well just love this stamp and don`t get chance to use it very much ~ and just so wanted to use my new papers from my minds eye!!
used the sketch over on:~

CRAFTING LIFES PIECES ~SKETCH CHALLENGE#32

ALPHABET CHALLENGE ~ I IS FOR INFANTS

ONE STOP CRAFT#112 ~ NEW BEGINNINGS

LOTS TO DO ~NEW BEGINNINGS

links on my left side bar

used my minds eye paper (and teddybear paper found in the paper cupboard),whiff of joy image and wording, coloured with promarkers, label nestabilities dies, quickutz swirl dies, stamin` up scalloped edged punch, flowers/brad and charm from my stash

thought i would include a picture of my two boys and their cousin justine (6 months old) taken new years weekend at my parents home.
hope you all had a wonderful new year ......if like me the house is so quiet with the boys back to school this morning...... oooooooh what to do first ..yes i guess some more washing......then a nice milky cup of coffee and some dunky biscuits!!
