Hello Baby Girl

The image is from Bloobel's Tiny Baby".  Coloured with copic pens, I have printed the image twice, fussy cut the whole image once and then the baby to lay in the hand. 

Every time I see this image I think of the song "He's got the whole world in his hands"

The baby has been layered with 3d dimensions onto the hand, which has also been layered with dimensions onto 2 Stampin up papers, I've added lace, ribbon, flowers and leaves together with a stamped sentiment to complete the card.

Inside I added more ribbon and a poem.
