Baby's First Steps


My friend's little guy, Nicholas, just started taking his first steps, so I had to make a card for her in celebration! I've been itching to use this digi stamp of a walking baby, so this was the perfect occasion!  I was going to leave the entire image as a sketch, but I opted to colour in just his outfit as a highlight colour.

For the 'Baby's First Step' sentiment, I simply typed it out using Scriptina font - 36 pt. Then, I printed it off using my new Brother printer.  Yippee, I finally got another printer.  :)

Here's a close up of the image.

It seems so quiet here tonight, my youngest daughter is at a sleepover tonight with her Sparks (Girl Guides) group.   So, it's just Jim and I here with our oldest daughter.   It's funny how differently a child acts when they're not with their sibling.   We had a relaxing night, watched a couple of IMAX movies that we picked up at COSTCO and now she's asleep on the couch.   Well, I better call it a day, we have to get up early to go get Natalia and I'm sure the alarm will be blaring way before the time that I want I to get up!  lol  :)

Thanks for stoppin' by! :)
