Have done a few different things the last couple of days - Mr Mojo went walkabout for a day or two so made a couple of CAS cards which I will share another time (sometimes it is easier for me to just do something plain and simple when my brain will not handle layers and layouts) and also once Mr Mojo put in a (very short) appearance, finished off the baby cards.
I cut the image out with the fancy oval dies then coloured the background with pastel chalk, I then decoupaged the baby and coloured it using the aforementioned DI's!
I added a wee bit of glamour dust to the bottom of the dress and to the Cross.
The Guipure lace was a Christmas present from a crafting buddy - it's so pretty and has a lovely shine to it.
The backing paper is from my stash (I think a Prima pad) as are the flowers and pearls.
Used a tag die for the sentiment and finished with a tiny white shoestring bow - and of course used up more papers to co ordinate the inside.

I have always loved this image for Christenings and love the card that you have made using it and love the touch of lace.
I know what you mean about the art pads I have had to add to many of them but I looked at some of the pads fro Christmas just gone and some, especially the penguin ones looked really really poor quality.

That is very beautiful! Lace and flowers are always my favorites. The diecut oval is perfect and I love the way the dress hangs over the frame. Thanks for joining us at Ruby's Rainbow Challenges.
