Today my daughter had her 12 week pregnancy scan and all is well!
She has recently had two miscarriages and was really worried in case history repeated itself for a third time, but she came home from the hospital grinning from ear to ear and clutching a wad of photographs of my newest unborn grandchild!
In fact the card is for this week's challenge at My Time to Craft where the theme is entitled 'Check it Out' and also for the Stamptacular Sunday Challenge this week, which is Ice Cream... here it's strawberry and vanilla!
I love to use gingham as a backing paper design and so I opted to use this pretty pink version from Cuddly Buddly for my card.
The image is Lilli of the Valley, as is the sentiment, and I love them both. Obviously I don't know yet whether I'll be making a pink or a blue version of this card when January arrives, but whatever it is, it will be pretty special!
Thats really great news Chrissie. It seems we both have something to celebrate today. :-)
