With this in mind, it's no wonder baby items are pink! A friend just became a grandmother for the first time so I decided to make a card for her. Her new grandchild is a girl so I got out some lace and ribbon and went to work.

I used the Stretch Your Imagination Cricut cartridge to cut out the pram, and the Storybook cartridge to cut both oblong frames. The pink dotted embossed paper was edge punched and inked. I constantly reach for my Music Score stamp... it adds just the right touch behind the floral pram! I added ribbon, lace and a stamped sentiment. The final touch was adding the tiny paper rose. Hope she likes it!

Earlier in the day I was putting away dishes when I spotted it! My daughter has three cups with pink kitty cats on them. We had the start of a collection without knowing it! Ha ha~

We both have quite a variety of tea cups and mugs, and did not even realize there were now 3 cat themed cups and they were all mainly pink! Here they are above, and I bet you can guess which one Miss R uses when she is really in the mood for a cuppa!! She saves the smaller ones for a comforting cup of chamomile before bed~
