Another Baby on the way!

No, I am not expecting, but my husband's co-worker is!

This is the card and blanket I made for her.

Since the mom to be hasn't found out what she is having I decided to use both stamps.

I was going for a vintage look but I really don't have the right supplies for that theme.

I had started this blanket last Friday but realized on Sunday night that the pattern had a flaw.

So at 9pm Sunday night I started over and here is what I was able to produce.

(most of it was done while I was working). :)

The yarn is TLC ultra soft in neutral.

The shower is today. I hope she enjoys the blanket.

Another Crochet Cre8tion

So you may remember the Blue and white challenge from Celebrate The Occasion a few weeks ago. Here is the project that I was working on:

I only had 2 weeks to crochet this baby blanket and baby beanie and I got it done (barely).

My dear friend and her husband are having their first baby in 6 weeks. I wish the best for them.

Thanks for visiting.

CTO "Blue and White" Challenge

Over at Celebrate the Occasion the challenge this week is a color challenge: blue and white.

I needed to make a card for my friend who is preggers. Her shower is coming up in a couple weeks and as luck would have it she is having a BOY! So it made this challenge perfect for my card.

All of the paper I used is from my scrap box. I have been on a mission to get that box down to a smaller pile. The stamps are from Inkadinkado, the button is from my stash, and the yarn is actually from the blanket and hat that I am crocheting for the baby.

I'm not sure why my ink turned out the way it did. Maybe because it was cheap.

This is the work in progress baby blanket my friend's baby will snuggle up to.

Thanks for visiting my blog. Head on over to CTO and enter your own cre8tion.

New Baby in the Family!!!

We have a new arrival in the family! Baby Noah!

This is the card I made for the proud parents!

The stamps are from Inkadinkado and the designer paper is a 10 cent find from Jo-Ann's.

The "N" sticker is from my stash.

I will be sending it off this weekend. Congrats to the new mommy and daddy!(and the big sister!)
