Baby Gift




I recently helped to host a baby shower for a good friend. She was blessed with a sweet baby girl. I just knew that the Papertrey Ink (PTI) egg box would be great for this, as well as a matching altered paint can. Of course, to my luck, PTI released their Bitty Baby Blessings line just in time!
All paper used was from PTI's Bitty Baby Blessings, with Lavendar Moon and Lemon Tart Ribbons. I used a local dollarstore find for the Chipboard Letters "Katie" on the paint can-which I think matched perfectly! I used the Bitty Baby Blessings stamp set for the paint can and egg box. On the egg box I used the Just Hatched PTI stamp set for the top stamp. I used my trusty Marvy Punches to punch out the "Just Hatched" image and layered it with a larger punch. On the sides of the egg box lid I stamped from Bitty Baby Blessings the image "Sweet Little Baby" and then added baby's name using the Simple Alphabet by PTI.
To add something "extra" I just had to use my new Stamping Bella Dots in solid light plum. You can see the Dots on top of the Egg Box and by the large elephant image stamped on the can.
My apologies for the off-lighting, my regular camera is in for repair.
