My cousin Anneleen gave birth to a little girl last month and they named her Louise. I like to personalize the baby cards I send to family and friends, and this time I used black die-cut letters to spell louise. They were very easily adhered to the Sweet Mango strip by using a Quickie Glue Pen.
I combined StampTV’s Color Spotlight 11 challenge with Jen del Muro’s February 2011 Sketch For You To Try.
Thanks for stopping by!
