I was inspired by the colors in the sweet Buttercup plush bear. This is a card for our oldest granddaughter and her hubby, to welcome our newest great grandson, born last Sunday (on his daddy's birthday no less). What a present! The soft stone striped paper and hawaiian shores polka dot paper were layered on a white card base. Baby was die cut from orange zest and the Memory Box train was cut from orange zest, new leaf and harvest gold. Everything was attached on the angled edge, the welcome stamped and a few enamel dots attached for the smoke from the engine. Here's my inspiration.

I love the card you made for the newest member of the family. Another generation to love (and spoil). The little train is the most darling embellishment, Sue. Congratulations.
