WHAT'S NEW...DT

 Hello everyone, and a very Happy New Year 2024..

 Hope you had a good one and already to start all over again with our first theme over at..

LITTLE RED WAGON   and our Imke is your hostess this week and her theme is "WHAT'S NEW"

New year, new beginnings, new home, new anything, cards, boxes, art journal pages scrapbook pages, anything you want, we want to see it..



For my project I had an order for a card and box set for a baby boy
and took the opportunity to use it for my DT project..


I have a few really cute dies for babies, so fished as many as I dared
and built to bos lid with them..


It looks crooked, but it's not, I just didn't put the lid on properly..


The cute baby picture is off the net a real vintage one
 and just added the date and die cuts...


I love the die cut lettering for his name and loved the name, such a strong name 
for the little fellow..


those little safety pins were die cut in silver card stock,
 and I coloured the cute giraffe.



the box is deep enough to add booties or some smallish gift..


and all finished....and loved.


So, there we go, do come and join us in our first challenge for 2024


Thank you so much for stopping by..

I'll see you real soon with the splash back..


She said "YES "...
on her birthday over in Switzerland..

We are all very happy indeed, he deserves so much happiness as they both do
and they will be home on Friday this week.

Luv CHRISSYxx
