Baby boy!

Hi there,

An old friend from high school just had her first baby boy last week. She moved all the way to Arizona so we have kind of lost touch except for the wonderful world of Facebook. Anyway, I wanted to let her know how happy I was for her. Mom and baby are doing great.
Here is a card I made....

I used the New Arrival Cartridge for the baby buggy. I cut it numerous times to give it a little depth. I embossed the bottom half of the buggy with the Swiss Dots folder and added a few adhesive gems. It's mounted on some circles cut from Nesties and added some adhesive pearls around the outside. Welcome to the World is stamped and then it's cut out using Nesties. Button and Ribbon from the good ole' stash!

Baby Girl & MoJo Monday....again!

Hi there,

I'm on a roll....

I loved this weeks Mojo Monday Sketch so much that I decided to do another card using the same layout. This card is for another little girl that came into our family. Leighton was born to my hubby's cousin and his wife a couple weeks ago and we finally get to go see her tonight! I'm so excited.

Here is the card I made for the little one.....

The background paper was a single sheet purchase at JoAnn's awhile back. The sayings on it are actually felt so it's real fuzzy. The scalloped circles are nesties and then embossed with the Cuttlebug. The little feet were cut from New Arrival using the Cricut. I added some pink adhesive gems and a bow and I was done!

Thanks for stopping by!

Baby girl!

Good Morning!

Hope everyone is having an OK Monday!

My sister-in-law just found out she's having a baby girl! My hubby and I couldn't be more happy to become an aunt & uncle! She's not due till the end of Sept though.

Be warned...lots of baby shower stuff to come in the next couple months....HOW FUN!!!!

Anyway, my hubby and I picked up a couple outfits down in Myrtle Beach and gave them to her yesterday for mother's day.

Here's the card to go with.....

I believe all the paper is DCWV..my go to paper..LOL! The sentiment was cut from the paper. I cut the lamb from Animal Kingdom in white and cut the layers (wool) from white glitter paper. Added some googly eyes and a bow. The two flowers on either side of "baby girl" are little flower brads.

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a great week

April Challenge Cricut Message Board.

Good evening!

I'm trying to get a bunch of stuff done before I head out of town to the beach this weekend. YAHOO! I have three cards for challenges I need to get done. Two of which are due while I'm away. Nothing like trying to pack up, me, hubby and the dog and try to get crafting done all at the same time. Plus, I'm one of those people who have to have the house clean before I can leave. So that's an extra step but I LOVE coming home to a clean house!

Anyway, I finally got my card done for the April challenge over at the Cricut Message board. I'm on Team One - Just Buggin away. The challenge was to use the card feature on any of the carts.
I hope my team approves of my card.

I cut the doily card from Wild Card at fit to page and blackout in brown. I cut it again regular in baby blue. The little elephant was cut from Zooballo twice and pop dotted. I colored around the edges with my Prismas to give him a bit more depth and added some googly eyes. The "It's a boy" was from New Arrival. I added a bit of ribbon from my stash to the middle and for the bow at the top. A few blue adhesive gems and a button.

Have a great evening!

Congratulations New Grandparents!

Hello again!

Here is another card I created today. This card is for the grandparent's of the new little baby I've been telling you about.

For this card I used New Arrival for both the baby and stork. The baby's face is a stamp from the Peechy Keen line. The marquee is cut from Storybook and a made it shadowed by bumping up the size 1/4 inch. I ran the pink part of the marquee through the Cuttlebug with a Fiskars plate that had baby feet and hands. The blanket and storks hat are glitter paper from Hobby Lobby. The lace heart boarder is a Martha Stewart Punch. The ribbon I found at JoAnn's in the baby shower aisle. The flowers are Prima.

Thanks for looking.

Have a great weekend!

It's a Girl!

Good afternoon! I love days of crafting.

I did this card for my cousin who is due to have a little girl anyday now! I'm so proud of myself because it's my first shape card done with my Cricut! I wasn't sure I could pull it off but it came out pretty good.

I used the guidelines for the Cuttlebug Spot Monday Challenge which is always to use your cuttlebug and something else. This week the design team was asked to use buttons on their projects. If you haven't checked them out do so here. Great stuff going on every Monday!

For this card I used New Arrival for the baby dress welded in Design Studio at 7 inches. I used my cuttlebug textile texture embossing folder on the "diaper". The little band around the dress is a cuttlebug embossing border frills. The "It's a Girl" on the bottom corner of the dress is from the baby cut/emboss combo. I used Flower Soft along the edge of the shirt where the ruffle starts. The ruffle is just some tull I had left over.

Hope you enjoy! Have a great night!
