Here's another one done from a prompt - use rik-rak, 3 brads, 5 buttons and a large handmade flower embellishment. This is Mia and Tim so many years ago now.

Nice LO Patty although a bit plain than your usual.

Can see it's Maria. Love the flower.

Oh yes I love this one too and the font is perfect (i think its called 'upon a time' Kim) . i remember that jacket/dress but my memory of the pram is flawed, i remembered it as navy blue and even I can see that its brown. Did we have a blue one ever?

I agree, Maria would be easy to guess in a 'who's the baby' competition! Love that flowerr, is it a T** H*** die?

Lovely. Agree that the flower is gorgeous.

Had a brown pram like that for Gregg, a lot of people had the little ones that converted to pushchair but never liked them. Had a similar size one for Neil but it was Blue denim look.

No Mia, never a blue one! I thought it was maroon when we got it, but I was soon corrected by all and sundry (my colour problem again!!!)

People who had those swore by them but I found them so cumbersome and heavy, must have been dreadful with 2 kids and all the shopping like my mum used to have in it.
I like your hair Maria, lovely font too, nice one.

I have a photo of one of my baby brothers in a pram like that.
They were cumbersome but at least they didn't fall over.

Yes same here Kim - and I notice, living as I do opposite a primary school, there are no end of new Mums who are now using those big prams again ... bet they cost a fortune compared to mine, which was second hand (sorry Mia!!)

What a lovely picture / layout Patty. That is sooo lovely.

My mum had the same pram for me when i was a baby, there is a picture somewhere of me holding a little monkey at the seaside hehe. I will have to see if i can find it.
