Baby Boy Card

I was invited to a baby shower for my daughter's best and long time friend Lia.
They have been friends since public school, they were each other's maid of honours and are now having babies!!!
I made the baby boy afghan for her in my last post "Baby Boy Afghan".
The stamps are from Recollections and the paper is old, old papers that I don't even know where they came from, lol.

After making this card, I came up with another great card idea!!!
But I didn't have enough time to create it, so we need another baby to be born so I can create it, teehee.

I hope you all have a very creative day 💗

Janus' Baby Boy Card

Yup, another baby boy card :)
This one is for my daughter's friend Janus.
She is also having a baby boy :)
I used some old paper that I have been saving forever…like 15 yrs forever!!
Yes I am a hoarder of paper…but isn't this background paper so cute.

I used my friends button punch for the buttons.
Each button has 3 layers of paper. I adhered the paper buttons on top of each other so they would be more sturdy.
I then used some twine in the button holes and tied them.
Lastly, I popped them up with some foam dots.

The card was looking a bit plain to me.
No matter where I put the greeting, it just didn't look right.
So I added some half back pearls to some of the button centres in the pattern paper.

Here is the inside of the card.
I thought this onsie was fitting for the button and baby pin theme of the paper.
It is a stamp and then I fussy cut it out of the pattern paper.
And my index card for the message.

I am entering another card sketch challenge…look at me go, lol.

This sketch is for the "MFT weekly sketch challenge".

I hope you enjoyed my card and you all have a very Creative Day :)

New Baby Tristan's card.

Its the Year of the Boy I tell you.
Everyone who is going to have, or had a baby that I know of this year, are all having boys (4 so far this year).
Here is a card I made for my brother and his wife for my nephew Tristan :)
Unfortunately my brother and I live in different provinces, so not sure when I will be able to see this little cutie in person.

I think I need a new angle for my photos as these look a bit wonky to me, lol.

Here is the inside of the card.
You all know, I love to use these index cards inside my cards to write my messages :)

Look at me go, another card challenge!!!!
Here is the sketch that I used from the challenge going on at "Mojo Monday" :)

I made this card on Friday during my Friday Night Scrapbooking evening that I host at my house.
My friend forgot her project, so just used my leftovers to make a card very similar to the one I did here :)

Hope you all have a very Creative Day

Kaitlyn's Baby Boy card

Today my daughter's and I attended a baby shower for my girlfriend's daughter's baby shower.
We were having a hard time grasping that our daughter's are getting married and having babies...we are too young for this...at least we think so, lol.
It seems like not to long ago our daughters were having sleepovers and playing together.

I of course had to make a card.
Being that I am trying my hand at more challenges, I decided to check out some card challenges and came across this simple sketch from MFT.
The card sketch challenge is "MFTWSC270"
Such a simple card, yet cute :)
I added the little punched out baby feet to the inside of the card as confetti :)

I simply stamped the toy elephant on the inside and wrote my note on an index card (which I always do).

Besides the gifts that my daughter's and I bought for the new baby boy, I also crochet this afghan for him.
Started this on Tuesday and completed it Friday afternoon :)
I have enough wool for a second one.
I just love this colour combination!
Here is where I found the "pattern for this afghan".

I hope you all have a creative weekend :)

Oh yes, my little brother and his wife had a baby boy.
Tristen is his name, he was 3 weeks early and weighed 10 lbs....yes you read that correctly!!!
So happy for them and can't wait to see the little one...not sure when that will be though :(
