A new baby niece will be making her entrance in a few weeks. One of the presents we bought her was from an
Etsy Store (all things handmade) called
RockaByeBabyRetro. It is a darling
Onesie made into a dress. There is a pink bow at the neck and applique on the front, with a full skirt. Carousels and animals are the dress theme in pinks and reds.
Another small gift will be a hand
water colored 5" x 7" little girl in an old fashioned dress. It will be drawn, painted and personalized for little "Ella Ann." The original stamp block can be purchased from
stampington.
Here is a similar picture of the girl before sketching, sizing and colorization process:

I plan on using all my watercolor skills on this little beauty, and will
matt and frame it in a
girly, pink flowered frame.
Congratulations, Kim and Jeremy, on adding this new life to the world!
