This card is for the do a card for a boy and for today's challenge. I used the colors from the pallet of this rug for my card here . I am just lucky because I have been working on this card for days for one of my adopted daughters at church...I am blessed to have two awesome young ladies that consider me family. Terilynn's husband is a fireman in a town close by so I had told her that when she had the baby if Kent was working to be sure and call me!!! What was I thinking. The other night around 10:00 pm I saw on my tv (technology is way over my head) that it was from her....I answered the phone saying do you need me to take you to the hospital as I was running around in circles looking for my shoes and car keys. This nice manly voice on the other end said no we are here but Terilynn has asked that you put her on the prayer chain because things weren't moving as fast as the doctors wanted. Answered prayers once again. Several hours later though, our new little boy named Reid arrived!!! Both are doing great. They haven't decided on a middle name yet!!!! She fits perfectly into my family of procrastination.
Thank you for looking. Comments appreciated

Cool baby name, Reid. I have not seen this image before. Where have you been hiding this cutie? huh???? What a darling card for your adopted daughter and her DH and new son! I just love this to pieces. Your IC truly has the perfect colors for you to be inspired by. Love that big gingham bow too. Did you tie it all by yourself? hehe....or cheat like me and use the easy bow maker? Love your card QFTD Sis! TFS :0)
