A Baby Girl Card....

Hello ive made a Baby Girl card today using the first ever PB stamp i ever bought the cute baby hedgie in a basket.

For some reason i had the urge to hand stitch around my card why oh why i do not know lol it took me ages but after i had turned the air blue with my cursing because i made myself bleed countless times lol i'm quite happy with the end result but would you believe it the pic doesn't show it off very well so i give up lol.

The papers are a mixture yet again but as usual i cant remember lol sorry. The image is PB which ive coloured with promarkers. The charm came from BunnyZoe Crafts and the gems and ribbon are from my stash.
