Christening Card

A stepper christening card today for my youngest grand-daughter. Lillie has been named after her great-grandparents. Lillie, (Lily) was my daughter-in-law's grandmother and Cynthia and Florence are my mother's and grandmother's names. She will be  christened wearing the christening gown that was hand made for my mother by her Aunt Gwendoline,  and Lillie's Great-Great-Great Aunt!!
I used the Tattered Lace Ornate Cross Die and pastel shades of card in lilacs and pinks.
 
 
I would like to play along with the following challenges:

  2. You've made a beautiful stepper card Ruth. What a lovely idea to have little Lillie christened in a dress which was handmade by an previous family member and also to be giving her a family name too. Barbxx

  6. This is very CAS for a stepper card! I love all your textures and the fact you've kept to very pale pastels. Thank-you for joining us at the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge 'Anything Goes'.
