Baby Card with A Child's Year Cartridge

Hi!

First of all I want to thank everyone that sent me kind comments or emails about my little girl dog!  It has really helped!

I just wanted to do a quick post and let you see a card I did for a friend that's getting ready to pop!


This image actually has a girl that's pushing the stroller, but my friend is having a boy...so I cut her off with scissors free hand.  I then chalked all the edges.  This card was made completely with scraps!
Recipe: Paper: Bazzill, Bo Bunny
Punch: EKSuccess
Ribbon and Buttons

Now, if I seem MIA, it's because I'm getting my projects ready...yes I said projects...plural, for a blog hop next weekend.  I'm going to give you a little hint...I'm making nine projects!  There are some that might be making up to 15 different items!  It's the 15 Days of Christmas Blog Hop!!!  I know...we're all crazy!!!  
It will start at Jessica's blog on Saturday, July 24. 
 There will be more hints to come! :o)

Hi Blogger Buddies!

I hope you're enjoy the summer with friends and family!  My home has been very quite this summer, since my oldest didn't know how much time she was going to have off to come home.  Well now I got the news that she got a new job, a real job that actually can support her.  Which I'm extremely happy for her, but she starts next Monday!  So unless I go to San Diego, I won't be seeing her for a while
:(    Ok...enough of my stuff, on to my card...

Baby Shower Invitation & Diaper Cake

**** In celebration of 100+ followers, I'm giving away BLOG CANDY! So click here and leave a comment to be entered! I will be drawing a winner on July 15th! ****

Hi!

I hope you're enjoying your Saturday!  I've got alot to do today...get ready for a baby shower, about 60 people!  I just wanted to do a quick post of what was made for it...


the invitations, recipe:
Cricut Cartridge: Create a Critter
Paper: Stampin Up
Ribbon: Papertrey Ink, Michaels
Circle Punch: Creative Memories






diaper cake,  I saw this on someone's blog, unfortunately I don't remember who's it was.  She had used disposable diapers, I switched mine to cloth.  This diaper cake is a dual purpose item...it's a centerpiece and a "guess how many items in the cake" game.  I've hidden items in the cake, socks, an outfit, and onsies.  Once the party is over, the mommy to be, has a gift too!  She'll also be surprised to see what's in it!


Advise card box...each side has a circle with an animal on it, like the invitations.

I made a pennant banner, but was unable to take a picture of it....basically each pennant had a letter ~ 

WELCOME NOAH JOHN
then I used each of the animals as before for the begining, end and in between each name.  I had added a scallop trim at the top and strung it with ribbon.  If I'm able, I'll try to take a picture at the shower.

Enjoy!
