My sister was expecting her second baby due 8th August but, I waited to see what she had before I made her a card. Jennifer and Michael had their baby son born on saturday 16th August at 7:30pm weighing an astonishing 9lb 8.5oz and was 55cm long! As soon as I heard I was excited about making them a card! I made it the next day after being told the wonderful news. This is what I handcrafted for the happy parents. I used a paper which I've had for a while now! It might seem odd that this baby boy card has oink in it but, with the yellow and brown in it as well creates a baby feeling. I then creathed a pram shape using wire with threaded on beads, which I did myself and joined eah component together wrapping the wires around one another! I then glued on the teddy bear (given to me by Sarah Louise Mitchell) and also the sequins too. I then stitched a frame around the whole image using blue metallic thread and stitched on a sequin and bead to each corner! To finish off I cut and sticky fixed 2x blue panels where I wrote Matthew James and the date. I was very pleased with my finished card and luckily so did the proud parents and grandparents too.
