I hope you've had fun during the previews the past few days - I sure have! There were so many neat tips and tricks the DT used for their projects (who can forget the vellum or the yummy Sakura markers?!), I know I'll be incorporating some into my future projects!
For my project today, I made a gift bag for a new parent of a baby boy! I took a white gift bag and gussied it up with some patterned paper and a little banner trimmed with some rhinestones. I added some little wooden shapes and tied on a tag stamped with one of the fabulous sentiment from the set.
As a new mom myself, I know how valuable this little handmade gift card is… :)
I took one of the coordinating papers from the collection and made a wee envelope using the new envelope die and added a card (cut from the gift card die) stamped with words that would be absolute heaven to my ears! Are you listening, honey?! :) I think it would make an adorable gift for a new parent complete with something for baby inside of the bag. Cute!
In all seriousness, I am getting a "mom's day out" on Sunday with my friend Jamie and we're going for brunch and pedis before the Oscars. On such a glam day, we all deserve a little bit of pampering, right?
And, one last shot of the little…We had a photographer come to the house for a little shoot in December. Be still my heart.
Here are the rest of the DT participating in today's hop! Thanks so much for visiting today!
