Baby Boy



Hello, friends! 
There is a fun little challenge over at Papertrey Ink to celebrate their 9th Anniversary


The colors that came up for me were Hawaiian Shores, Blueberry Sky and Spring Rain. I knew right away these colors would be perfect for a baby boy card. My nephew and his wife are expecting their first baby in March. We are so excited for them. I know they like simple so hope they will like this. 

As much as this is a very happy occasion it still makes me a little sad that my sister Maryellen who passed away from cancer when she was too young, Will not know the joy of being a grandmother for the first time. I will never forget how that felt. ( with each one)

 Hope you enjoy your weekend! I am sure I will be back tomorrow for more Papertrey Ink challenges.
