TOOT TOOT!!

These three images make up the card for a forthcoming christening. The numbers on the engine and the wagons are made up of information about the little boy.

Inked around the edges for more definition. Buttons are by doodlebug. Text created with large doodlebug rubons - 'all mixed up' Gingham ribbon is from the papermania capsule collection.
