Wee Ones



"Wee Ones" is the challenge over at Wee Memories; Jenny wants us to incorporate babies or children into our art.  I found this digital image not long ago at Digital Two for Tuesday.  It is from a children's magazine from 1929.  It reminds me of Christopher Robin, don't you think?  I just colored it with my pencils, cut it out, and placed it over this Cosmo Cricket paper from the Togetherness mini deck. (thanks, Tif!)  Probably one of the quickest cards I've ever made!  The sentiment is a new one for me from Hero Arts, from a clear set called Just Find Me.  We mothers whose children are grown and gone can attest to that sentiment.......

I thought it WAS Christopher Robin when I first saw him! Love it - a perfect simple layout but so right!
