Ruby Baptism Card

My husband and I have the honor of loving up a beautiful great niece. Baby Ruby joined our family in January and we recently celebrated her baptism. Like any good auntie, I wanted to make a special card for the occasion. I've toyed with the idea of using a mini cross stitch kit for a card and finally tried it. I love it! I used a piece of ribbon and two doilies to create a detachable piece. The heart can be used as a book mark or hung on display. Here's the proud parents holding Ruby. Love all these faces so much!

Thanks for looking! Spicey Cat Chick =^..^=
