Shopping for Two

Good morning all.  Today I have a card to share that I made for my fella's eldest son who is now expecting.  It's so sweet and exciting and they also asked me do I want to be called Nannie or Grandma.  I was a bit shocked because at 45 I never expected to be called either ha ha ha, but I like Nannie ha ha ha.

I think it's a lovely idea to get a pregnant lady a card to celebrate the fact that she is expecting.  I got one when I was pregnant and I loved it, made me feel so special.

The gorgeous image is from Bugaboo Digi stamps
