 "Babies, Babies, Babies Every Were"

Hello, little old me again with lots of things and a card to share with you this afternoon. Can you remember a couple of weeks ago i shared a baby card, and that i was feeling a little old as my children's friends all seem to be having babies. Emily's best friend Sophie and her husband have had their baby. A very cute little chap called Alfie-James. I knew i had to get a couple of baby cards as lots of babies due before Easter. On my travels for gorgeous Digital images i came across a little etsy shop called Pattie's Creations. I found a perfect image but the baby was wearing a Santa hat. I ping over an image to Pattie on the off chance she had any thing similar. I received a lovely message offering to draw me another with out the hat. Excellent customer service you have to agree. To cut a very long story short Pattie and I hit it off and I am know on her design team. I am so honored to be on a team with such talented designers.
