Baby Kaitlin

Our new baby Kaitlin Elena has arrived - August 3 - my Dad's birthday.  Katie is the new daughter of our daughter Sarah and her husband Steve.  Big sister Emily is very thrilled and will be a great sister - once Katie is old enough to do stuff!  I took this opportunity to make each of the girls a card - one to welcome Katie into the family, one to congratulate the big sister Emily and one to Sarah, my dear daughter.  Ah, life is good!
Materials:  Katie Card -- Sugar Nellie - digital image; Embossing folder by Sizzix; Colour by Copic; Emily's card - Image by Elizabeth Bell - Peekers 1 Collection; Sizzix embossing folder; Colour by Copic; Sarah's card - Image by Kraftin' Kimmie;
Pictures -- Little Kaitlin and one of Emily and her baby sister!

Oh my gosh, congratulations!!! When I saw the first card on my blog roll, I just had to come over here to see if you coloured that image?!?! It's amazing, looks soooo realistic! I really love the embossing you did on all three cards, kind of ties them together! Beautiful job!!!

I hope you had time to enjoy your granddaughters and your daughter!! All of your cards are beautiful!! I really like how you embossed the card base of the last one and then cut out the image!! The baby in the first card gets me every time!! It's such a beautiful image!
