Thought I'd show you the Arty Farty Cherub Crib I made for a friend in work. She wanted it not too OTT frilly - and believe me I've done them totally OTT before now!!!
I 'cheated' with the carry box too - made this one out of acetate with a card bottom.
The base plate at the foot of the crib is a plaque with the baby's Name, Weight and Date of Birth.
I do love making these cribs - I used to make a fabric quilt too - but gave up on that as it used to take me 1 hour to make the crib and 10 hours to decorate it!
I may actually upload a few versions a little later - will be good to remind myself how else I've decorated them too :)
Challenges I'd like to enter this for.....
Sophisticat - 'Card for a Child' (I know it's not a card but the challenge does say they accept lots of other crafty creations)
Simon Says Challenge - Birthday/Celebrations
Raise The Bar - 'For Mom' (Can I get away with the fact that this is a keepsake that Mom will cherish as much as hopefully the baby will in the future???)
Hello Carol. Hows things. Your crib is so delightful. So pretty and very delicate. What a wonderful keepsake. Happy crafting.

I know what you mean about using your own graphics programme, I am lost without mine. I've installed it on my new laptop so I can now use it upstairs too!
