Baby Girl Card

I saw this card being made last weekend on our PBS station on a show called Scrapbook Memories. They were using the Sizzix diecutting machine.




I decided that I could recreate this card using my Cricut Expression and my Gypsy. Below is my "version" of this card.



The card is from New Arrival.



The rattle was created by welding several different things together. I used Sugar & Spice cartridge to get a scalloped circle and the bow. The stem of the rattle is an "L" from Plantin SchoolBook. The ball on the end of the stem and the circle in the middle of the rattle is from from Accent Essentials.



Thanks for looking!

Happy 4th!

Well, no matter how hard I tried this weekend, I got absolutley NOTHING accomplished ... My husband has had a terrible cold for over a week, and I thought I was starting to come down with it on Saturday night. I started taking vitamin C, drinking LOTS of water, and took lots of naps. I feel pretty good today. Getting ready to go back to work tomorrow. Good thing it will be a short week.

I hope your weekend was productive!
