Aud Sentiments Challenge #80 Child or Mother and Baby Inspiration


Hi everyone, it's time for some more inspiration for the current challenge at Aud Sentiments.  I hope you are enjoying this challenge which is of course...

 SENTIMENT FOR A BABY/MOTHER AND CHILD.

Our sponsor this fortnight is



A Day for Daisies

and here is my creation


I used a beautiful image called A Gift from the Stars courtesy of our sponsor. I have coloured the image with Promarkers and made it suitable for a boy or girl. I generated the sentiment myself and used a Spellbinders tag die to cut it out. I attached the tag to some ribbon using a glittery brad - I have had these for absolutely ages and find it very hard to use (I like them so much!!). The papers are from a set called Nanas Nursery - baby boy from DCWV.

I would like to enter the following challenges:-

Simply Create Challenge - Anything Goes,

Crafty Catz Challenge - Anything Goes,

Our Creative Corner Challenge - Anything Goes,

Glitter n Sparkle Challenge - Ribbon,

The Crazy Challenge - Baby Card,

Crafts And Me Challenge - use a digi,

Eureka Stamps Challenge - Baby or pregnancy card, and,

Creative Creations Challenge - For a Child.

Hope you are having fun.

These are some pictures from a trip in Summer of 2011, we went to Wookey Hole and to my surprise found a lot more there than there used to be. After going through the caves we walked past this area which was just like a Fairy grotto - the children loved it although you couldn't play in it.
