Baby Shower Gift

One of my old work friends is expecting her first bubs at the end of the year so I put together this nappy cake! I've always wanted to try one of these- I've seen pictures of them on notice boards & in mags & thought that they looked easy & they are (they take more nappies than you would think!!)

I've put little bottles of lotions etc around it & Erika picked out the little lamb & the rattle in the shops & in the middle holding it together is a baby bottle! Since Kim & Jason don't know what they are having (or arn't telling!) I used a little bit of purple & certainly celery ribbon (I love those two colours together!) & for the card I used one of last years hostess stamps (punches three) & stamped the bundle of joy in cc & tied a little bit of white taffeta ribbon to the card & made the envelope using my big shot & the exclusive SU scallop envelope die in a discontinued DSP in cc to match it all together!

I'm still here!

Sorry it's been a while since I've posted something but I have been busy crafting! The first pic is mums birthday card- the design is from Michelle Zindorf, I came across her blog via the demonstrator website the other week & just fell in love with her designs & I just had to try this one out!

The second card for today is Dougs birthday card- I helped Erika make him one but he still wanted one from me so I finally got around to it (only a couple of weeks late) & Doug loved his card!!
I love the new versa marker- I was able to emboss the tools after I coloured them in! And the crop-a-dile is great, it was the 1st time I've used it for eyelets.

Ive also been working out my Christmas stamp -a- stack designs, I cant believe its already October! I've got a few cute Christmas workshop ideas as well so I'll work out my dates & let everyone know soon.
