It's very important for me to be inspired to begin with otherwise the outcome will be less than satisfying... and then I'd probably scrap the whole thing and have a less than perfect day ;o) Not to mention that it wouldn't be fun to create - and that's just wrong!
Well, while I was up at stupid o'clock feeding our boy (it was about 2am or thereabouts), the idea came to me! I thought I could make a felt flower just like the one on the recent photo album / brag book I had made, and go from there.
So here's the outcome, I'm very proud of it and I'm considering making them to sell on Etsy as well. I'll make a boy version first so there's more than one card to choose from ;o)

Hubby really likes it, what do you think?

I like it! Very cute and definately Etsy worthy.
Love the new blog wallpaper too :)
hey, thanks for visiting my blog! i think the card is absolutely lovely - nice work - and welcome to the blog world. it's a bit hard to get into the habit at first but stick with it, i'd love to see more of your work.
(and to answer your question directly: i work in port melbourne, almost right under the westgate. we are looking to buy in the inner west though so i guess the bridge will become a permanent part of the landscape soon!)
Thanks Lara & Leslie!
The wallpaper design came from a flocked velvet wallpaper in the dining room of The Terminus Hotel (pub) in Abbotsford. I love the design!
