"Word of the Year"

I usually choose a "word" to inspire/direct me for the year and this year it cannot be anything else but "BABY" !! My daughter and her husband are due to have a little one in May. It will be our first grandchild so we are very excited even though we live a long distance apart.
My card uses some new stamps (given to me for Christmas by my DIL again lol !) and uses this week's sketch from Freshly made sketches #    268 . My colours were inspired by a new challenge that I found. at Colour INKspiration .
I did not have the colours that they asked for but made do with what I had to give the same effect I think.

Edited to add....YES! It's a boy!!

What an adorable card. I love that the sentiment is spelled out in blocks! Congratulations on your new grandchild-on-the-way! And thanks for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.

How exciting to have an expected baby in the family, your card is utterly delightful, lovely colours and design and love the flowers with the doily and elephant.
Sorry I've been awol, but for some reason blogger won't let me comment and I have just found a way around it. hopefully. LOL.
