Baby OH Baby!!!!

I am so in the baby mood right now! Don't ask me why, I do not have a new grand child on the way, there WAS a challenge to make something pink and baby over at HMF, but I MISSED posting because my camera was on the fritz sigh.

I'll post that project another day.

Today, I have some cards and a project using my NEW Graphic 45 Little Darlings paper. This paper is OH SO lucious and gorgeous, I just HAD to make some things.

So I started with this sweet little baby girl card,,,,,,,

I tell you, this paper is too darling! I used circles large, lacey ovals. spiral blossoms 1 and banner basics 1 to create this card. Easy peasy.

But that wasn't enough baby for me!

so I made this!

They are not intended as a set. If there were a set, I'd have inked both and used the same ribbon. They COULD make a lovely set,,,,,,,but the altered altoids tin is for my sister to put her baby's first year pics in (he turns 1 next month) and the other is simply a card to have in my stash.

Here's the inside of the tin!

And here's the little mini book open (untie the bow)

I started her off with one pic, but she can fill up the rest of it! Isn't my Nephew Robbie just adorable? I wanna smooch his little cheeks!

Thanks for looking, I should be posting a bit more now that my camera is fixed!

Have a lovely rest-of-the-weekend!

Baby Card,,,,,,,,and a lovely compliment!

Today I have a baby card to share. EVERYONE is having babies LOL. My neighbor down the road had a baby girl, so I put together this RIDICULOUSLY simple card together. Paper is DCWV baby girl paper, stamps are a sheet called SPECIAL DELIVERY and I used that stamp for the front. Gems are dollar bin and ribbon is basic basic from Michaels.

My favorite part of this card is the inside. My Special Delivery stamps included both hand and feet print stamps,,,,,,,and it struck me that one of the very special deliveries you receive when you receive a baby,,,,,,,,is hand prints,,,,,,on EVERYTHING, So that's how I did the inside of the card. I left just enough space in the center to sign it. I am thinking it might have been even cuter with pink ink. Hm,,,,,,I need pink ink LOL.

I also received a LOVELY compliment from one of my dear friends who asked how much I would charge to make her some of my snowflake cards pictured below. She's a good friend, so I didn't want to charge her at all, but she insisted, so we worked out a swap instead for some scrappy supplies. She is so sweet,,,,,,,I can't think of a nicer compliment and she made my week!

Hope you enjoyed the baby card, and thanks for looking!
