Baby Girl Gift




Hi and goodmorning everyone its 2.40am so I shall keep this a quick post.
A little while ago I made this gift for a friend as she knew she was having a baby girl and now little Charlotte has entered the world I can share it with you.Firstly I apologise for the quality of the photos as my camera came out of a christmas cracker lmao(not really).
I had bought a template for this pram and box and thought it would be a good idea to try it out this is the first one I had ever made so please be kind with your comments heehee.
For the pram I decided I didn't want to leave it plain so I used a swirl stamp and embossed it with white embossing powder and the main embellishments used are this lace which I think is perfect for babies some silver border peel offs and some silver bows,I would love to know what you think of my first attempt.

I would like to enter this one into the following challenges:

The swirl stamp with the lace works so well - good thinking & nice attention to detail putting the lace on the anopy outside & the lace on the pram basket on the inside - looks realistic.
