One of my friends became a Great Grandmother for the very first time the other week. Her grand-daughter gave birth to a healthy 8 lb 11 oz baby boy! It was so funny when we were on the 'phone. She mentioned that someone had sent the father's mother a "Congrats Grandparents" card and said she had never heard of that (she is a card maker) and how silly it was. I sat there, not knowing whether to laugh or own up - I had made one for her. It was with the Birth Congratulations card and she would be getting it the following day.
How we laughed about it when she eventually plucked up courage to ring me and thank me. Here are the two cards - I did not know what to do and got a bit tired of my usual baby cards so used a teddy bear on this one.
and for my friend
'another boy' card (they have lots of boys in the family)
Both using Spellbinders gorgeous frames (obtainable from
Oyster Stamps) and painted with Twinkling H2o's.
