To Welcome a New Baby

Hi folks,

Well today I get to share both a card AND a quilt that were just gifted this weekend to welcome a new baby.

This quilt - for those of you in the know about quilts this is the tried and true "Yellow Brick Road" from quilt pattern from Atkinson Designs done in a baby size. The fabrics are from the Wilmington Prints collection "Sweet Dreams Little One". I actually bought enough of this fabric to make three of these quilts so....I'll be making a couple more of these.

Of course, I had to make a card to go with ....

card details:

• finished size: 5 x 5 inches, white cardstock base
• patterned paper: CTMH Georgie (retired) - it's my go to paper collection for baby cards these days.
• stamps: CTMH Georgie Scrapbooking WOTG (retired)
• layout: Viva La Verve September sketch

As always, thanks for stopping by!

Hello Baby - Mojo 430

Hi folks,

Just popping in to share one of the cards I made at the Crop for Haiti here in Ottawa yesterday. It was a wonderful event held to raise funds to help build an art room in a school being built in Haiti. If there is one being organized in your community, I would encourage you to attend! Or even check out how you can get one organized in your own community!


I made a couple of baby quilts to be gifted soon to so I figured I should make cards to go with those quilts. Here is one of those cards.

card details:

• finished size: 6 x 6 inches, white card stock base
• patterned paper: CTMH Georgie
• stamps: CTMH Georgie Scrapbooking WOTG
• embellishments: CTMH Georgie Assortment
• layout: Mojo Monday 430
