I Love You Barn Animals



I am on the cute train friends;

I'm going to be a grandma ;).


Lawn Fawn Tiny Gift Box/Bunny Add-On/Chick&Duck Add-On, Erin Lee Creative You Got This Foil Die Set/Black Glossy Paper, Spellbinders Satin Pastel Glimmer Foil, Simple Stories Homegrown 6X8 Paper Pad



For my daughter's baby shower, I made about 40+ favor boxes of these cuties cut from Lawn Fawn Tiny Gift Box and Add-On dies.







They were so much fun, I wanted to make more "friends", HA! ;)

But I used them in a country scene for Lawn Fawn's challenge:




I recently picked up Simple Stories Homegrown paper pack that has this cute country scene.

They just needed the two cuties.

I'm also entering the following challenges because Ducky has a wing:

Lots of Love, Cool Envelope and Backgrounds




I've been cranking out thank you cards, and this one has the most shine yet:



Pinkfresh Studio Lots of Love, Spellbinders Paint Your World Butterfly Burst, Hero Arts Cherry Blossom flowers, Erin Lee Creative Designer Foil Plate, Spellbinders Satin Pastel Glimmer Foil, Tonic Studio Mirror Cardstock, Concord & 9th Nectar Premium Cardstock, The Stamp Market Rip Strip Envelope A2








The flowers were in my extra pile.


They seemed to vibe with the butterfly.

Simon Says Stamp IG April Challenge: Shimmer & Shine


Hey I was messing around with Erin Lee Creative's Designer Foil plate and I love it in all the colors

 (including the solid plate version with remnants on the second and third)~


 

Three were on Erin Lee Creative's White Glossy Cardstock and the third one (solid plate with remnant) is on Black Glossy cardstock(pastel glimmer foil).



I trimmed the last on on the right and added a strip to my card

 (it went well with Concord & 9th's new Nectar Cardstock. ;)


The Rip Strip Envelope A2 dies I picked up at The Stamp Market is EVERYTHING...just saying ;).


Thank you for your sweet visit!

Baby Shower Invites, Favors and Advice Cards


My daughter is expecting y'all!

This is my first grandchild and we are so excited for this lil' one!!!

Here's a look at shower favors, invite and an Advice Onesie for the guests to fill out:





Lawn Fawn Tiny Gift Box/Bunny Add-On/Chick&Duck Add-On/Plan On It Calendar (rainbow arch info), Birch Press Design April Showers sentiment stamp, Sue Wilson Collection-Baby Onesie, Sizzix Rainbow Joy dies



The shower invite, once designed (you know how it goes...thinking, thinking, and more thinking until you're satisfied ;) ),
was easy to replicate.

I kept the party detail stamps attached to my MISTI until I knew I had enough.





Lawn Fawn Plan On It Calendar (rainbow arch info)/Chick & Duck Add-On (Tiny Box) umbrella , Birch Press Design April Showers sentiment stamp(embossed in glitter powder), Sizzix Rainbow Joy Dies, Simple Stories Harvest Market patterned paper (on the umbrella)

Little Note, Big Thanks


Here's another thank you for a family helper that helped me with a recent baby shower (the patterned paper on the umbrella was the same that covered the diaper pong board I made and I have SO MUCH of it).

Speaking of Mirrored Card Stock:

Thank You for Being a Friend Outfits



I wanted to thank someone for helping me throw a baby shower.
