It's A Boy!


I hope you have been having a wonderful Wednesday.  I have a baby card to show you today.  This image is from Doodle Pantry.  The set is called Quirky Stork.  This reminds me of Dumbo.  My granddaughter loves the stork part.  We have to shop the movie and watch the stork drop the babies over and over.  However, this stork is dropping an actual baby not baby animals.  Instead of a tag at the top I turned the sentiment into another cloud.  This was a fun card to make and easy.  I hope you keep enjoying your day!

Crafty Gals Corner - Polka Dots
Little Red Wagon -Things that start with a "B" - baby, boy, blue, bird

Anything but a card over at Karleigh Sue Challenge


For the whole month of April at the Karleigh Sue Challenge we are hosting an anything but a card challenge.  I made an envelope to hold a seed packet.  I decorated the envelope with the image called Take Time to Smell the Flowers.  I thought it was perfect to add the daisy see packet since she is smelling a daisy.  The flowers are felt and I have had them for so many years, gotta love hoarded items.
Below is the seed packet pulled out of the envelope.  The little tag says "Plant and Enjoy".  I hope you come on over and join in the fun with us!
