The day Jesus our Savior was born!!! Here is a special T shirt I made this for my DIL. My Son and DIL is having a boy . So I had to make a shirt for my DIL to wear to say she is having a boy:) I'm going to be a Grandma:) I guess I'm getting old .... but that's OK. I can't wait to spoil my little man:)

The images on this shirt is from Cricut Potpourri Basket and it is on New Arrival Cartridge. To make stencil image for shirt I used Dura Plast all Purpose Peel and Stick Decorative Paper.
