Baby Boy Layouts

Tavan 1

Tavan 2

My most talented cousin Jenny has been visiting from California the past few days and we’ve been crafting it up. I’ve been working on a few scrapbook pages for one of my dearest friends and his adorable wife who are expecting there first, a boy they are naming Tavan, in November. The top frog layout is made using coordinating Cloud9Design paper. The frog is a paper piecing pattern by Treasureboxdesing (you can find her on e-bay). The other paper piecings I hand drew and cut out. It has two 4X4 mats.

The second layouts polkadot paper is by One Heart One Mind and the animal paper is by Imaginisce. The scalloped circle is from the Cricut cartridge Mini Monograms and “TAVAN” is made out of cardboard letters cut out from Basecamp. My favorite is the light blue footprint ribbon (thanks Jenny!). It has one large 5X7 mat. I didn’t make these at home so I didn’t have my sewing machine which bummed me out. However, I am working on a few more baby boy layouts that will have more detail on them. I also find out my baby’s sex (my second) on Monday so there will be a lot of baby projects to come!

Wedding Day

I know I’ve posted a couple of cards using this Bella stamp in the past but it’s the only wedding stamp I own. My favorite part of this card is the inside. I ordered the Opaline half pearls on-line and couldn’t wait to use them once they arrived. I used the George Cricut cartridge to cut out the ovals and embossed the silver oval with my Cuttlebug using swiss dots. The bride and groom are water colored and then stickled.  The card is sewn with a light pink thread.
