Come On Baby! Blog Hop

Hello and Welcome!!!

I decided to do this blog hop for my baby. I am due today January 17, 2012 with my first baby and it's a BOY! I have been working on a baby album for him and wanted to show it off in a hop! I have asked some amazingly talented women to join me in this fun!!

I do have to tell you that I have already had my son. He is now 5 days old and I am loving every minute of him. He was born January 12, 2012 at 9:43am. 

Now onto my Layout I made using the Bamboozled by Love file from Treasure Box Designs. I am loving this file and I decided that this page will be when we first layed eyes on him in the hospital.

I inked almost all of the pieces, and used my white gel pen. I am in love with the way this Layout turned out!! I can't wait to put his pictures on it and put it in the book. 

Thank you for coming by today!!! Your next stop on this hop is SANDRA!!

I made my card with the H2O solutions cart. I just opened it for this project and I really like how it came out! The Sandcastle is cut at 4 1/2.

The card is a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card.  The Layer is 4 x 5 1/4 using Echo Park Summer Days pack. I used the Divine Swirls Cuttlebug Folder for the background. I also used this pretty ribbon from the Dollar Tree. I used the White Sakura Jelly Roll to stitch around the Kraft Cardstock.

I used this stamp that I got out of the dollar bins at JoAnn's to make it an adorable party invitation.
