Welcome, baby Lila!

Hi! Have you heard the happy news? Jennifer and Ken McGuire have a new baby, Lila! A bunch of us decided to make a ton of cards to welcome her into the world over here at Jana’s blog — and you can even join in the fun too if you like! (Check it out.)

Here’s the card I made:

None of the baby stamps that I have felt exactly right, so I decided to stick to patterned paper for this card. That’s right, no stamping! (Can you believe it?)

I had fun using my typewriter on a background that I made in photoshop — something about the old + new appeals to me, ha! And of course I had to add a little washi tape.
