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.

Father's Day Cards

I promised some of my Card-Making friends that I wouldn't neglect them when posting on my blog! So, I thought I'd post up two Father's Day cards that I made. My first passion is Scrapbooking, however I am also a stamper and card-maker!

The first card is one that I made using the Father Knows Best stamp set from Papertrey Ink. I made this one for my Dad and my Father-in-law. The second card I made for my DSS and DD to give to my DH. It's done with one of Gina K's Kindred Dads stamps and the sentiment is from Kindred Greetings for Him. It's a really cute line of stamps! The brads on both cards are Screw Brads that come from Gina K Designs.The other supplies are from Stampin Up (my good friend is my enabler when it comes to SU).
