Welcoming a Little Princess

Good morning fellow crafters.  Hope all is well.

For today's card, I've used one of my favourite baby sentiment stamps from Woodware. Baby boys are catered for too (!) changing the wording to 'Prince' and they are little royalty aren't they? Being waited on hand and foot!  Worth it though.

Pearls
