    Default Current project

    I am putting together my baby's birth announcements. So far this is what I have. I don't have enough of one color paper to make all the cards exactly the same, but I have enough blues, greens, peaches and yellows to make all the cards I need. Here are examples of the blue and peach cards. they will in essence all be the same except for the colored cardstock.

    I am using a roller stamp I purchased from a Stampin' Up Demonstrator. I believe the stamp is called "wash day" don't quote me on that. And I am using their water color pencils as well. The white cardstock is their product as well, the colored cardstock I got in the artist supply dept at Hobby Lobby, a half sheet will make one card. I have only done the fronts of these cards so far. I will worry about the rest another time, after I have finished all the fronts.

    Absolutely adorable. I love them! Make sure you save one for the baby book or even to frame and hang in the baby's room.

    OMGosh, those are SOOOOO cute!!! Fabulous job!

    I've been wanting to dabble in stamping for awhile now, but told myself that I had to finishing getting my scrapping stuff organized first.

    I can't believe how creative all of yall are. I am doing the scrapbooking thing but I have so many pages to do that I'm keeping as simple as possible. I may get to the stage one day where I can get a little more creative.

    Michelle, Nope, I am not selling SU anymore. I couldn't meet my quota . Plus I was never set up with a "mentor" to help me get going, so i wound up floundering and just couldn't get my quota reached. Bummed out big time!

    Thanks everyone, these are fun for me to do. It kept me busy. And people seemed to like getting them
