Baby Blessings

Good morning!

I made this card for my daughter's in-laws, Dave and Colleen.  They sent Tom and I a beautiful card all about Grand daughters and I finally had the chance to create one for them.  I hope they like it.  We are so lucky to be able to co-grandparent our beautiful Penelope Joy. 

This card will be entered into the Challenge at Scrapy Land, Anything Goes.
