My first card is another special order for a workmate's baby shower. I came across these DPs in my stash, no idea where they came from! My stamps are old-oldies from Shirley's 2 Girls - I always had a bit of an issue with the spelling of 'mold', I would have spelt it 'mould'. But maybe it's an American spelling?
Coloured with watercolour pencils and Wink of Stella added to the babygro and to the flowers on her dress. Couple of little charms from my stash ... we know the baby's going to be a boy so I added the little lad - it looked a bit lonely on his own so I added the feather charm too. - Simon Says Stamp Monday - leap into the unknown

My second card is a rare attempt at a 1-layer card, and I'm dead pleased with how it turned out! I used an oldie Penny Black stamp - coloured with watercolour pencils and lots of red glitter and gloss added to the balloon. Faint outline of clouds chalked in the background. Sentiment set from Clearly Besotted. Red sequins from stash.

A week off work for your birthday? Now that's something I never got!! Both your cards are fab. Those little charms are so cute and really add character. Your plump kitty is quite a character, too. Not sure if his plumpness makes him float or the balloon!

Yes, "mold" is the American form... I think I like "mould" better! Ha! Both cards are very cute. The preg lady caught my attention-- I need to make a few more baby cards for coworkers! Need a cute stamp like yours!
