Stork Shower Card

Stork is cut from DCWV Linen Closet Cardstock slab, which I am kind of obsessed with.  I got mine at JoAnn's and have purchased two more since the original.

Image is cut at 4 inches from Holiday Cakes Cricut cartridge.

Frog Themed Thank You Cards

I received so many beautiful gifts while I was pregnant with my little man, I mass-produced these and that little bit of preparation was a god-send. 

The frog is from Create a Critter (you probably recognize it from Nursery post) and I ran the background paper through the Cuddlebug using the Seeing Spots embossing folder.  The Unfrog-getable is stamped from More Punny-Liscious by My Pink Stamper (http://www.mypinkstamper.com/ for retailers).

Nursery Preparation

So now you have met the little man, let me show you all of the projects that I did to prepare his nursery...


The frogs and dragonflies are cut from the Create a Critter cartridge.  I cut them out of Oh My Crafts Vinyl (http://www.ohmycrafts.com/).  I used Olive, Celadon,Persimmon, and Black.  I cut the large at 8 inches and the smaller ones at 3 inches.  I purchased a bedding set titled Froggyville from Ivy and Lambs, so these were inspired by the frogs in the bedding.

I'm BACK!!!

So, it's been almost a year since my last post.  In that time I got a job travelling, got pregnant and had a beautiful baby boy!  Travelling coast to coast while pregnant was an experience I'd prefer not to repeat, but the things I learned and the experiences I had were priceless!  Then after a month of bedrest, it was time to meet the little man.  Connor Scott was born on July 1st at 10:05 am.  He has been so amazing!!!

Now I'm a stay-at-home mom and excited to scrapbook, make cards and update you all on my projects!!  Look for much more to come!
