New baby girl – forever friends

I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. So now I give him to the LORD. For his whole life he will be given over to the LORD.

1 Samual 1:27-28

I have made this card specifically for my cousin and his wife whose daughter Ruby Rose arrive this week.  I have used a DoCrafts CD in Digital Designer to create the rose-pink themed card and a card sticker to finish off.  The CD is available for free at the moment with the DoCrafts Creativity Magazine, I bought mine this week at Hobbycraft.
