Baby Girl Step Card

Our church holds a baby shower for all first born babies and I love to make up a special card for the occasion.  Although this card was sent out to our missionaries who had their first baby in August. This card was CASED from Jackie Topa. 

These Side Step cards are not hard, just a little detailed and they definitely have the WOW factor.

Are you wondering how the Craft Sale went on Saturday? Well, thanks for asking!!  It was the first time for this school to hold a craft sale and I think they did an amazing job.  Many of the families in our church attend that school, and some teach there.  Since it was held in my home town my booth was visited by many friends and acquaintances.  
I loved seeing everyone.  

The sales were approximately to the mid range of what I prefer,
 but it definitely was worth it.  

This was Carla's first time to be at a craft sale and she did not have a ton of stuff to bring, 

but what she brought sold very well.  The funniest thing we had happen was this cute little girl with a pink hat came shopping with her Grandma who also had a booth nearby.  Every half hour or so she would skip over with a bit of money and buy something.  We'd watch her skip back to Grandma's booth to show her what new treasure she found.

I have a few weeks to recover before the next sale, I was pretty tuckered out on Sunday

Thanks For Stopping By!

Have a Blessed Day!!

Baby Boy Card

Oh My Goodness when I saw this card idea come through Stampin’ Connection by Tina at http//mytherapymycreations.blogspot.com I knew I was going to make these even though they are rather
time consuming. 

                         

I followed Tina’s instructions by stamping the Teddy and the Onesies on Watercolor Paper, watercoloring them in and then cutting them out. But I love the finished product – it will make great baby cards for all the expectant moms we have in our church (that is if they have a boy tehe). In fact my friend Amber is expecting her first baby today and when she heads back to college next month I will be watching the new little one. They are waiting to see whether it is a boy or girl so not sure if I can use this card for them or not, butnever fear, I have several other cards on hand to choose from (tehe).

SS: Baby Bundle, Baby Tees, Teddy and Train
CS: Early Espresso, Very Vanilla, DSP: Elegant Soire`e

Baby Teddy with a Treat

Now, you know I have admitted to being the biggest copier of all time, but I mentioned during a meeting with our fellow demonstrators that what I thought would be cute in the Treat Cups would be the candy shaped like pacifiers that you can find at a local craft store. I was all set to create a cute card, and even purchased the candy only to go on line and see exactly a card I would love to make and they even used the candy I had purchased. So…once again I am copying – but isn’t it cute!! I scored the back with our score tool so the recipient can just poke it and make access to the candy.

MENU:

SS: Teddy and Train, Curvy Verses

CS: Certainly Celery, WW, Watercolor Paper, Bashful Blue

INK: StazOn Timber Brown (local craft store), Bashful Blue, Creamy Caramel, Blush Blossom
