Pink Gem Challenges - "Inspired by a Xmas Carol or Song"

Good Morning Gemsters, well we have already started getting our Christmas Challenges and Pink Gem Designs is no different so this time we want you to use one of the Christmas Carol or Songs to inspire you to create a Card. As usual we are being sponsored by Janet Robers of Pink Gem Designs


And as a DT member we are lucky enough to be able to choose any of the images that you will find on the Pink Gem Designs website and this is the card I made for my brand new Great Grandson Toby


And of course the Song that inspired me was "Baby's 1st Christmas" by Connie Francis and you will find it here,. yes its definitely a song I was as surprised as you probably are, anyway I printed him onto white card before colouring him with my copic pens.
Afterwards I used a Crealis stitched die to cut him out and a larger one for the mount out of blue card/ The sentiment was created on my computer and cut out with a circle die and mounted in the same was as the image.
The papers are "Christmas Sparkles" also from Pink Gem designs and you will find them here, and Ive mounted them up as shown and put the image towards the left and the sentiment at the top right hand corner.
This Card will be entered in the following Challenges:-
