I am so late making and sending this card. You have all probably already made Pat a card congratulating her on her new grandson, but for some reason, I just couldn't think of something that seemed cute enough. Baby cards are not my specialty. I finally sat down today and decided that I was going to make the card if I didn't do anything else. I used the Sweet Sunday Sketch as my inspiration. I am so happy for Pat and the kids - this is a major blessing and they will all be the best parents and grandparents ever! Hugz to them all!
PT - 5 punches - I think I lost at least 1/2 lb!

Oh, it is a darling card for Pat and I love the 'duck head idea'. Super wheels, too. How appropriate to use some of Pat's lace. She will treasure this card from you, Nancy.

Coool use of the punchez my fellow Punchkateer. You are right, but I think it's about 5 lb. weight loss on this one. This is adorable and you DO make fantastic baby cards it seems. I know Pat will LOVE this and the lace - icing on the cake for Pat. I need to get her a card too, so you're not the only one late!! TFS!

This is so beautiful Nancy. That pearl flourish is big, bold, and beautiful. The lacy accent is just perfect to add some old fashioned sweetness to this lovely baby card. Beautiful job.

Oh, Nancy, your punch art is just adorable!!! That baby buggy is so sweet, and I love all the flourishes--like the baby's cuteness is flying out everywhere.
