I have a new neighbor, Nolan, one week old! I love the feel, smell and expression on a new lil baby.
The Twisted Sister challenge this week to do a card using 2 different nesties, use buttons, brads or a charm, and add ribbon or twine for dessert. I used SB #5, Lacey Squares and ran some light blue gingham ribbon thru the edges and also the SB Circles for my scene. My clothesline is twine, and the flowers are brads. The bg was sponged, and I added leaves from my Kitty Kit from Rubbernecker.
Thanks for looking!

Awww, Sis, this card is so full of love, Nolan's Mom will be saving this as a cherished keepsake FOR-EVAH!!
You wrapped up so many special elements in this card - there is so much to look at - and study!!! The fern punch and added Kittie kit leaves every where, just bring your focus to that sweet little babysuit hanging on the line! Lacing your ribbon through the edges of the lacey square was brilliant - love how you personalized it with his name - what a treasure!! You really outdid yourself!!

Wow what a treasure for Nolan's parents to have from you. That is a sweet little outfit hanging on the line. I love the button brads for flowers and the way you wove the ribbon through the nestie.
