a gift for baby

Hope you all had a lovely weekend! Mine was FABulous, got to see a lot of my sweet little neices and watch the 4 kiddos play together which always makes my heart happy :) Also got a lot of Stamping in with some delightful ladies which always helps to put a smile on my face!

 A lot of what I created were cards working ahead for Design Teams I am on so will not be able to share right away but stay tuned... 

 I did however make the time to make a Baby card for good friends of ours who welcomed their first child a couple of months ago :) We are all East Coasters (the sweet mama is married in) so I thought I would so something a little different than a typical baby card to make it more personal to them.

    Very nice baby card, Haley. I love how you used the colors and used the idea of the sea for someone on the east coast. Definitely more personal that way. :) Thanks for playing with us at the Friday Mashup.

    Such a thoughtful and personal baby card! That's one of the great things about stamping is that cards can be so specific and unique according to the individual!! Love the colors you used and of course that set! Thanks for joining us this week for the sketch at Create with Connie and Mary!
