New Welcome



Don't little precious packages bring so much joy? My husband told me last night when I came home that one of the men in his office was a proud new daddy. So, I whipped up a card for him to take.

I guess it's easy to tell based on the color that they are proud new parents of a baby girl!

The picture quality of the card isn't that great, but I had just had two intensive days at the office (one of them had me up at 3:45 AM again), so I was beat, but wanted to capture the design so I could reproduce it as needed in the future.

Here's a closeup:


The rattle is stamped and embossed on heavy vellum, in case you're wondering (since it's semi transparent).

The inside reads "Congratulations".

Such a sweet precious card - so perfect for a wee little one! Love that velum rattle, gives such a feeling of softness and those baby polka dots are too cute!

Baker John

Totally scrumptious, this bread. John is home from college right now and in-between hours of aimless gaming, he must be thinking of good food. He trolled my cookbook case and pulled a very old Italian bread cookbook out and VOILA....filled our house with the wonderful aroma of rosemary. His first loaf.

On the Mend

This card is for my friend who is on the mend (the one who survived the motorcycle accident).  She has amazed everyone with her recovery, even the hospital staff.  What she has yet to overcome is just the time involved in patching herself back together. I thought this would be a good card for her and hope it puts a smile on her face.  She probably feels alot like this mummy right now, because I bet there aren't many areas on her not covered with bandages and casts. The sentiment I used is from a StampinUp! set from the 2011-2012 catalog.  (I just got these yesterday).  It has 4 stamps, all with this swirly, vintage feel [Thank You, Happy Birthday, Celebrate Today, and Get Well].

Precious Boy

A quiet, misty morning walk in late March 2012. This little precious boy puts a smile on my face every time I look at him. I mean, really, who wouldn't smile like there's no tomorrow at this little guy?  I love him.  Every. Little. Thing. He almost (ALMOST) competes with my husband. My sweet husband with a similar expression.  What do YOU think?
