Many of you already know SIL is pregnant with the first baby in the family...she's due in early 2007. Having never had a baby myself, I'm only speculating, but I imagine there comes a time when you just feel kind of "yuck." I wanted to send her a card to let her know how beautiful she is and what an amazing job she's doing in helping prepare this little one for the world. We unfortunately live far away from she and hubby, so cards and emails have to suffice!
It's also my first time using glitter...yay! I think I'm in love! This card is all about impulse buys...the $1 stamp and ribbon is from Michael's - I stopped in to buy adhesive this afternoon and look what I left with I've so admired all the cards in the gallery made with this stamp and just had to peek to see if they had one left...and they did! My lucky day!
TFL!

Such a beautiful card and a wonderful story about your sister! I love how you used Around and About. I have that set and have never used it--elongating it was very clever of you!

this is beautiful .......... I have also been eyeing this stamp from Michael's and I do believe that your card will be sending me back to look for. And.....your sister in law will absolutely love it.......sure to cheer her up from any of the maternity blues!!!
