Hey Peeps. (This doesn't count Delphine!)
I made this card earlier in the week, (my first attempt at monotone) and it's kind of appropriate now, as Sweet Cheeks is our Star and Superboy. He's (unexpectedly) been in hospital the past few days and been poked, pricked, prodded, x-rayed, measured, tested, poked and then prodded some more and as much as a two and half year old can, been very friendly and brave about it.
Thankfully, we're home again now, but he's still a bit uncomfortable, so posting may be a bit random and sporadic over the coming days.
