When I saw that Hazel was challenging us to make a Chris
tmas card for someone special, I imediately thought of my new great-grandson Isaac. As his mum doesn't follow my blog, I feel quite safe in making a card for him and posting it here. So first of all here is Isaac, who obviously is going to be encouraged to share his mum's love of Disney videos, and her favourite Tigger.

So first of all here is Isaac, who obviously is going to be encouraged to share his mum's love of Disney videos, and her favourite Tigger.And here is the card I have made for him.
I have used a MoManning digi stamp for the main image, called 'Baby's first Christmas', and coloured it with copics. The backing paper was from my stash, a magazine freebie I think, and the red is a very old sheet from when I had a phase of printing Christmas music as backers. I reversed it and used the back for the frames. The bauble was a bit insignificant so I gave it some shine with glossy accents. This has cracked slightly overnight so I may have another go using UTEE instead. I thought it would be fun to sit the baby in a flower, so the poinsettia and fir branch are Marianne dies and the script bauble was made with nesties circle dies, and computer generated words.I am entering this card in:
Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge 44: For someone special. Bah! Humbug! Challenge 43: Use Die cuts.

And I am linking it to Stamping for Joy so that Shirley Anne can add it to my tally.

Spot on with this one Kate - really adorable! I love the whole card - and so clever to print the music onto red card then make a poinsettia. Isaac is such a cutie - def. going to be a Tigger fan! Di xx

Such a cute baby! And, your card is quite cute, too! I love that the baby is sitting in a flower.
This is just stunning!I love it-and what a great memory it'll be for Isaac when he looks back on it in years to come.
gorgeous card and it looks like him! saw it on mim x
Hi Kate! Thanks for the lovely comment about the wreath card. I thought Blogger wouldn't let me zoom in too until I spotted something just the other day. If you're getting the image on that horrible black background (why ever did they change!!) when you first click on it - then look down to the bottom left of the black background. You need to have full screen to see this - there's a little bit of text which says something like 'view original'. If you click on that you then get the image on a white background sort of to the top left of the screen. Hover over the image with your mouse and there will be a plus sign. Click on that and the image enlarges :)) VERY useful for having a good ole nosy :)) Di xxx
