Carpender Baby Shower

Wow! Long time no post. I seriously need to get better about blogging. It has been a very busy weekend. Some friends of ours are expecting their first baby July 19 and thought I would share a couple of photos. Excuse the graininess of the photos as these were taken with my phone. Not sure if you can see the card she's holding but I made that :). Her colors are brown, pink and white so I used those colors in the card. I forgot to take a picture of it before I sealed the envelope (don't ya hate it when that happens?!).

They were opening gifts and Nick (the daddy to be in this picture) had to "guess" what each gift was before they opened it. If he was wrong, he had to put a grape in his mouth and couldn't chew it up until all the gifts were opened. Surprisingly he only had 2 grapes in his mouth at the end of gift opening!!

Aren't they just adorable?! I swear it looks like she's got a basketball stuck to the front of her. Their shower was held at Paris Mountain State Park. It was very hot but we had a great time. They got some really cute stuff. One of the cutest things was a pink camoflaged onesie. Nick is big into shooting/hunting and his brother (Jason) gave them the gift of the onesie. It was precious!

    Such cute pics - I think it's adorable to see slim women when they're pregnant! Any woman pregnant is a sweet sweet thing, but I like the basketball look. :) That little girl is going to be so spoiled rotten, but that's okay - that's what you do with little princesses! :)

Fun with Artist Trading Cards!

Hello again! Things have been crazy as always and I've neglected my poor blog. Just wanted to share a little ATC project with you today. These were made for a swap in Fancy Paper Crafters . The swap theme was Spring ATCs. I love all the flowers and butterflies that come out in spring so naturally, this is what I was going to do for my ATC. With the designer paper that I chose, I had so many color options! I looked through my cardstock to see what I had in my stash (I'm on a mission to use my stash rather buy anything!) that would match and came up with this coral/pinky color. I used a Stampin Up punch for the butterfly. The flower center is a simple jeweled brad by Recollections. The jewels on the butterfly are by Nicole's Design (I think!). I couldn't find my flower punches so I used my spellbinder dies and embossed them. Pretty easy peasy right :). Thanks for stopping by today!! Have a crafty day!

Scrapbooking Project

Hey y'all! Sharing a scrapbook page with ya today (thought it would be good to mix up this blog a little instead of always doing cards!). When my oldest niece, Alex, graduated high school, I made a HUGE scrapbook of her life (birth to graduation). Well, I had so much fun with it and saw how much happiness it brought to her, I decided to do the same for my nephew, Austin, who graduated in the summer of 2013. This is one of my favorite layouts from his completed album. The completed album had right around 40 pages total. This was a challenge for me as I wasn't used to scrapbooking "boy" themed pages (we only have dogs and they've all been female). I wanted to use only one picture on this scrapbook page as I felt the photo deserved to be the sole focus on the page. I don't remember the name of the designer paper I used but I know all the cardstock is by Bazzill. I used my printer to type up the journaling (my handwriting is terrible so I always print when
