Creative Belli Challenge #143

Yay, it's Wednesday!

I'm always glad when Wednesday arrives, as it means the week is half over!  I hope all of you have had a good week, so far, and are planning lots of crafty time this coming weekend. :)

I have another Creative Belli challenge project for you today.  The challenge is Baby.  For all of the details, click HERE.

I absolutely love this!  I'm not sure why, but I just do.  I used some Nestabilities I have had in my possession for over a year and a half now, to create the "Boy" sentiment layer, and I used some old papers for it as well.  Everything on my card is stuff I've had for over a year too.  My co-worker and his wife just welcomed a son to their family, so I think this is perfect timing for this card.  I hope they like it.  I've also combined the following challenges in my card.

The Craft Place - One for the boys.
2 Sisters #90 -  Anything goes
Great Impressions #3 - Anything goes
Craft Your Days Away #4 - For Children

I do hope you'll head over and see what wonderful projects the other Belli girls have created for you today.  They're adorable!

See you soon with another something crafty!
Hugs!

Use It Tuesday Challenge #26

Hi ya'll!

I hope your week is going well, so far.  It's been crazy, go figure, around here and we were closed at work for inventory yesterday and today.  I've got some catching up to do on Wednesday now for sure. 

I have another Use It Tuesday project for you today.  My fellow UIT DT member, Heather, has just welcomed her beautiful baby girl, Claire, into the world.  Thanks to this wonderful event, we're celebrating with this challenge, which is, All About Baby.  For all of the details, click HERE.

I always struggle with masculine cards, but this weekend made me realize that I struggle with baby cards as well.  I had NO clue what to do for this challenge. lol  Then I broke out the distress inks, like I always do when I can't figure out what else to do, and this is the result.  I dig it.  I used an older striped background stamp to add some dimension, and i used up some hoarded patterned papers and a stamp set I've had since last year but had yet to ink it up.  I think this will go to my best friend Drew and his wife, who are expecting their first baby...a boy.

I've combined the following challenges in my card as well:

Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #153 - Sketch
Paper Sundaes #109 - Circles
Scrappy Frogs - Die Cuts
Play Date Cafe #120 - Baby Blue, Orangecicle, Basil

I hope you'll head over to the Use It Tuesday to see what my friends have created for you today.  They're wonderful!

Hugs!

US #89 - Baby Boy

Happy Saturday everyone!

This is going to be a quick post.  I'm headed to breakfast with a friend, and I'm behind on getting ready because I forgot to schedule this post. lol

This week we have a piggyback challenge along with the sketch at Unscripted Sketches.  The extra challenge is to create a masculine themed project.  For this weeks challenge, click HERE.

I love this frog!  I've had it for ages, and finally inked it up.  I also love the embossing on the patterned paper star.  I hope you'll head over to the US blog to see what my friends have created for you.  As always, they're all wonderful!

Have a great day!
Hugs!
