My christening card

[indri]

I finally came up with an idea for a christening card, after getting some inspiration from forum members as I was out of it! So here is what I came up with Quite pleased with it as I've never made a christening card before and so was out of ideas.

Hope you all like it.

It's lovely

I really like the way it incorporates a religious symbol aswell as the baby theme - so many christening cards seem to ignore the fact that it is actually a religious ceremony

[indri]

I didn't want it to look too much like it was just a rehashed new baby card, especially as they will have already had cards on the baby theme when their daughter was born, and I didn't want to make it too overly religious as they are not frequent churchgoers! All I need now is to decide what to write on the inside!

Oooh yes that is really nice, perfect for a christening card!

[Autumn Faerie]

That's lovely, very simple & elegant & I also like the way you've combined the baby image & the religious image. Really good

it has a lovely balance between the 2.

This card is lovely... carefully balanced between baby girl and religious without being over the top on either count. Beautifully done

Give me 2 weeks and I'll have a bit more time as I'll be off work! Everything ready for bundle except cot (once I've been to this christening in 2 weeks and collected a load of secondhand baby stuff!)

Thats very sweet, great card!

It always surprises me what you can do with quilling and I agree with everyone else, the simplicity of it is perfect.

Thanks everyone. The christening is in 2 weeks, so I'll find out what the parents make of it (if there's time between our wheeler dealing on baby goods).
