New Baby Card

I made this new baby card for my SILs new great grandson.I made a criss cross card,and a pre-coloured topper from Hobby house.Cardstock from Papermill Direct,and everything else from stash,which was my New Years resolution-to use up my existing hoard err stash before buying more.I bought a bag of the platic safety pins sold as shower favours but have never used before.
The two inserts--
