Baby Shower Decorations

Last year my mother and I hosted a Baby Shower for my sister, who was expecting a boy. Well when I heard the news, the ideas for decorations were popping into my head.

Here are a few pictures of the decorations I put together:

I made diaper cakes as the center pieces for the 10 tables.

I hung baby clothes on a clothesline as a decorations.

I found a great website online BabyShowerStuff.com where I purchased the balloons, candy and baby dolls.

This baby in his carriage welcomed the guests to the party, at the front door.

Of course we had to have specialty drinks at this event, on the left Blue Raspberry Martinis "Pregatinis" and Lemonade.

The challenge for this week at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog is Snowy Delights, incorporating snow or snowflakes in your project.

I made these cards to send out to friends during the holiday season.

The blue cardstock is cut at 4 1/2 x 6 and was run through the cuttlebug with the snowflake embossing folder.

The Large Snowflake was cut at 2 1/2 " (white layer and light blue layer under).
The Small Snowflake was cut at 1 1/2" (white layer and light blue layer under).
I used a white sparkly Stickles to cover the top layer of the snowflakes

The Stamp is a $1 stamp from Michaels using Stampin Up Brilliant Blue

* the snowflakes and the sentiment are both raised by individual pop dots*

Throwback Thursday Challenge

This week Emma at My Creative Time, hosted a Throwback Thursday and you had to use an old cartridge to make a scrapbook page or a card.

I decided to use the Easter 2010 Solutions cartridge, to make my nephew's (soon to be godson) baptism invitations.

Thank goodness for my gypsy, because I made 15 cards in 1 hour, I can only imagine how long it would take without it.

The items I used:

Bazill blue paper cut at 6 1/4 x 4 3/4

Cuttlebug Embossing folder Scrollwork

White Cardstock

Ink: Chalkbox ink

Onesie Baby Shower Card

I was inspired by pictures I saw of baby shower decorations, onesises hanging on a rope.

The card is a standard A2 size .

The green grass is cut from Texture DCWV paper stack in light green, and I used the Martha Stewart Grass punch.

The Onesies (New Arrival Cartridge) are cut at 1 1/2 inches using patterened paper.

(I applied a small rhinestone to the middle onesie for dimension)

The Hangers (New Arrival Cartridge) were cut out of chipboard at 1 3/4.

The sun (Create a critter cartridge) was cut at 1 1/2 inches using textured paper from DCWV paper stack.

The clouds (Hello Kitty Greetings) were cut at 1 1/4 inches.

The wire is from a Making Memories, I attached it to the back with double sided tape.

I hope you enjoy and are inspired!
