Playing Catch Up

Okay, I'm sorry for all of these posts but since my computer was down for so long I have lots of catching up to do. In fact, my computer is still not fixed and I decided to just start downloading pictures onto my husbands computer!

Anyways, after receiving my framed art from Michelle, a little while back, I wanted to make some of my own using her masterpiece as my inspiration! I actually found some 12x12 frames that my mom-in-law had bought for me a while back and decided to use them. Since my cousin is having a birthday party for her daughter in a few weeks, I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to make one!

This one's not framed yet...I was having a hard time getting a good picture of it so I took it out of the frame.

I used my Cuttlebug embossing folder for the background and some Stickles on the hula girl for some bling!

After the first one, I was on a roll.....

My GF had a birthday party for her daughter this past weekend and so I made one for her as well. It was the perfect project to use up some of my Smirk scraps!

Again, I used my Cuttlebug embossing folder for the background and Stickles for some bling. Here's the matching card I made to go along with the gift!

After my mom saw the first two I made, she asked me if I could make one for her friend who was celebrating her birthday this past weekend.

We found the smaller 8x8 frame at Wal-mart. Her friend's favorite color is purple and she likes Asian themed things.

Here's the card that I made for my mom to give with her gift. I let her choose what she wanted on it and she chose this Gorjuss Girl image.

And the last one I made was to welcome a new addition to the family. My DH's cousin & his wife welcomed their second child last month. I still have to deliver this to them so hopefully they don't see this before it gets to them! But if I'm not that lucky, Ardis I hope you like it!

Took it out of the frame because the glass and my camera's flash were not cooperating

I just think Stickles are the greatest! Easy to use and adds such great bling to your projects!

Thank you again Michelle for your inspiration! As you can tell, I just LOVE the framed art you made for me!! :-) I hope you're all having a wonderful day!!

A Baby Gift

Okay, so I've been a terrible friend to my GF Brenda. She had her 4th daughter on April 1st and I only recently gave her her baby gift. I made her daughter a personalized onesie and burp cloth using the freezer paper method and my Cricut! I really love making these. So sorry it took me forever to get this to you Brenda!!

I placed them in this gift bag that I made after seeing a tutorial of it on Becky Roberts' Inking Idaho blog. I also made her a gift card holder that held a gift card for Target

Thanks for stopping by and checking this out. I appreciate you taking the time to visit my blog!

Animal Baby Card

This card is for my cousin who just had her second baby!! I can't wait to see pictures of him! The coloring on these images really suck because I was using some pretty old stamp markers to color them with...I really need to invest in more Copics!! Where's the best place to buy them??
