baby girl...


babies...

Dontcha just love baby showers?

My boss is having a baby next month and this week is her shower...I scored on a load of CUTE stuff at Baby Gap....

Here's her card:


Yup...a baby girl!


One of my fav go-to Cameo cut file is the basic tag....

All the paper is October Afternoon Woodland Park.  Do you see that graph paper strip?  That's actually part of some OA packaging:)

I was inspired by the current retro sketch:


Last weekend Darin and I visited my cousin...she actually lives in the same small city but going out to her place feels like being in the country.  She owns 5 alpacas...


The prettiest animals with the longest eyelashes....




Happy Friday eve!!!!

I totally {heart} alpacas!!!!! One spat on me once, though. That was less than fun. HAHAHA! Your card is so sweet!
Love the green on the baby card.

And I. LOVE. Llamas/Alpacas. For real. They make me giggle every time I see them. Funny story: in Vegas everyone was oogling over the lions and tigers and I was snapping photos of the llamas on the other side laughing all by myself. Maybe you had to be there :)

5 alpacas??!?!? imagine the gorgeous luxury yarn!!!!!!! knitter's heaven over there!!! :)

for the record, i love babies, and buying baby gifts, but am not keen on baby showers, as such. (which is weird but very ME, lol!)]

something i love wholeheartedly with no conditions or reservations is this BRILLIANT version of the RS... which shows how cleverly you are already getting with said cameo! holy wow, is there no end to your talents??!?! (she asked, already knowing the answer was, "NO!!!") ♥♥♥

Awww, what a sweet baby card! Love the colors and love the bit of upcycling you did with the packaging material. The negative die cut work is fabulous, too.
