One of the things I enjoy a lot is seeing the friends of my daughters growing up and having their own families! It's fun, knowing what there were like as kids and seeing similar traits in their children. My middle daughter, Kristen's best friend growing up just had a baby boy. She already has a two year old daughter, so this makes for a lovely little family. I wanted to come up with a different baby congratulations card, so I went to my stamp shelves and got out May's "Best of..." stamp set, celebrating Stampin' Up's 25th anniversary. It is the "Best of Brides and Babies" and I love the little images and sayings!
- I also really like the combo of Soft Suede and Coastal Cabana for the paper and images.
- If I had to do it over again, I would have made the Very Vanilla panel smaller so you could see more of the Coastal Cabana, embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder
- The Decorative Label Punch made the label on which the flag, stamped in Soft Suede with a stamp from the Delightful Dozen set, is centred.
Don't you just love those teddies? Looks like a teddy bears' picnic to me! My daughters' each had a special stuffy that was loved to pieces. My oldest had a traditional teddy bear named "Telly", my middle had her beloved "Pink Teddy", and my youngest had a lion named "Blun" ??? But each stuffy survived their childhood and is waiting for the new generation to give them some more love!
