Christening Card

Happy Valentine's Day!  I hope you are all indulging in your chocolates.  
My daughter's roommate asked if I would make a Christening card for a very special little boy.  Here's what I came up with.



The baby's name was done using Cricut Craft Room and the Songbird cartridge.  I used the shadow and base features.  The baby's name looked a bit "blah" and since his mommy is a lover of all things blingy, I added Frosted Lace Stickles to the name.  The cross is a Spellbinder's die and the pretty ornate mat behind it is a Marianne's Design die.  I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder for the background.  The flowers are from I Am Roses.
I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Papertake Weekly ~ Hearts and/or Flowers
Cute Card Thursday ~ An Eye for Detail
Charisma Cardz ~ Anything Goes
