KIDS . . . start out as BABIES!

I am constantly amazed how quickly childhood passes and how, just as quickly, I've become 'mom' to an empty nest! I'm happy for them . . . and rather sad for me!  So today I'm gonna reminisce a bit - with BABY cards! Super simple and cute - and just the right touch to send your congrats to someone just beginning the KID journey!

The little parasols were stamped an extra time, colored, cut out and popped up with a tiny piece of a dimensional.

GUY Week: HIS~n~Hers

Happy Friday, stampers!!  How about another 'guy' card idea to round out the week?!  This card lets a special guy know he's the STAR of the show!  Add a little bling, and he'll be convinced.

 

And here's an extra for ya - HER version of this card, complete with classy pearls!
