Another great grandchild

 Hello there,

Our 5th great grandchild, Ivy Rose was born on 1st February weighing in at 4lb 13oz. When did I get old enough for great grandkids?

Naturally I made a card,

 



 I'd been hankering after this coverplate die from Alexandra Renke for ages but they've stopped delivering to the UK. I managed to get my hands on it by having it delivered to a family member in the EU and them bringing it here for me along with a few others ofcourse.

Sadly after all that faffing this is the first time I've used it. Now that I have, I have so many ideas for it. Valentines, weddings, anniversaries, the list is almost endless. Be prepared to get sick to death of seeing it.

I cut the coverplate from linen effect white card. The solid card beneath is baby pink pearlised card.

I cut the tag from an offcut of linen card after printing the sentiment on it, I added one tiny heart cut from the coverplate in baby pink and finished off with a tiny pink gem stone.


Edited...I'm adding this card to the challenges at Addicted to CAS and Inkspirational


 
 



Just to show off a little bit I'll leave you with a pic of Ivy Rose.


Thanks for popping in x

    Congrats on your newest great! Your card in honour is very sweet - and probably even more beautiful in real life, where the linen texture and pearl sheen really show. Thanks for joining us at Inkspirational!

    Firstly, congratulations - what a beauty! Her little blanket seems like the perfect inspiration for your fabulous card. Those little pink hearts are everything! So glad you shared both of these beauties with us at ATCAS this week
