Celebrate Baby...New Life

I'm so happy you've stopped by today.  This is one of those days that I'm posting something just for fun.  No Design Team assignments, no time limits, and no particular reason for creating.....just got a burst of energy late last night and decided to pull out these Simple Stories Oh Baby supplies I picked up last time I was my favorite scrapbook store in the world, The Pine City Scrapbooking Co.  I've only made a couple cards with this line so far, and I'm already thinking that I want to get a bit more of it.  You can find some of this sweet line at Simon Says Stamp.  Isn't it cute?

I used an ivory base and attached some of the sweet patterned papers from this line.  I also added a white doily, some ephemera and stickers from the Oh Baby line, and a long length of Teal Baker's Twine.  The stamped sentiment (Celebrate Baby) is from a set by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps that's called Farmhouse All Occasions Greetings.  I think the only other things I didn't mention yet are cute little pearl embellishments and the extra little strips of various patterned papers that I inked and cut into flag/banner strips and added with a miniature rusty paper clip.  You know me....I never know when to stop.

I just love everything about this sweet Oh Baby line, and I'm so glad I grabbed it when I did.  I'm so glad that I can still order more of it cuz I'd sure be bummed if I couldn't get a bit more.  The patterned papers are so sweet, so I know I'll be getting at least the 6x6 paper pad...and perhaps a few other goodies.  It's just too cute!

Thanks again for visiting.
