the first 12 months

A friend of mine just recently had a baby shower and since she was having her second girl, I was at a loss of ideas for a gift. Then I remembered a memory box that I made for Gavin's first 12 months. It's a great way to store all of the sweet little trinkets from those early stages of life.

My friend is not very traditional in her girl colors (no to pink) so I found some old Pink Paislee paper that just happened to be her theme colors and was also very feminine at the same time.









On the inside of the lid I left a spot for her to place a 4x6 picture of her new baby.



On the inside of the box and used some Thickers to spell out her name.



I also made a card to match the box!



I was really happy with the results. In fact, I wanted to keep it for myself :) But of course, I didn't. My friend was very happy and impressed with the gift. And she loved the colors (whew!!)
I love giving handmade gifts to people that appreciate them!!

finally finished!

Last month a friend of mine asked me to create some pages for her daughters nanny. It seemed like it took forvever, but I finally got them finished!! All EIGHTEEN pages! Now I can do some scrapping of my own :) And let me tell you...I've got a lot I want to do!!

Stay tuned...

Holiday baby

There's a new prompt up at Scrap that Baby! We are challenging you to create a layout about your baby celebrating any of the winter holidays. I chose to do a layout on the anticipation and excitement on Christmas Eve.




I absolutely love this line by Pink Paislee. For this layout I used the December kit at Scrappy Chics.



I've been trying to use my punches more often...and right now I am favoring the scallop border punch. I love layering them on top of each other and then curling them up for dimension.



Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to enter your layout!!
