Boy oh Boy Challenge Diaper Bag

 Hello Ai fans!

Today I have a little experiment to share with you.
I was wanting to make a baby card for the Boy oh Boy! challenge
and I got the idea to use the tool bag as a diaper bag.

I'm pleased with how it turned out.

The die that cuts out the bag also cuts slits to place the tools in. The tools

are smaller than the baby items I included, so I cut some of the slits open

a little larger with a craft knife. It worked perectly.

I used the new silver paint to add accents to the bag and to paint

the pin so it would look more real.

So far, this card is for no one in particular. The only baby on the way

in my life is the next door neighbors daughter and she's having a girl.

I know it'll come in handy at some point though.

Enjoy your day!

Welcome little man!

Hello Ai fans!

Before I share my card I just want to say Happy Anniversary to ME!!  9 yrs. ago today I shared my first post as an Art Impressions Design Team member.  I have loved every single day working with these wonderful owners, employees and of course the other designers!

Now...onto my card.

Today I'm sharing a card that I made for a co-worker.  She's pregnant with her third son. 👶

I used 5184 – Baby Boy Set.

The ovals were cut using 5065 – Oval Double Stitched Dies.

The little hearts inside were cut with dies from the 5222 – Coffee Gift Card Holder.

She was due July 2nd so he'll probably be here by the time you read this!

The BABY BOY in the middle folds flat when you close the card.

There are 11 adorable images/verses in this set.

I managed to use 7 of them on this card.

The airplane is popped up on foam tape to give it some dimension.

Congratulations Melissa and family!

Copics used:

B0000, B12, B24, B45, Y00, Y11,

W5, E00, E31, E93, E99

It's a BOY!! Congratulations April!

Hello and happy Monday!!

It's a time for celebration in my home town!  

That's right...that world famous giraffe APRIL is from my hometown. (well, close enough)

Her owner Jordan is.  She's about 30 min. away from my house.  We first met him about 13 yrs. ago when my kids used to go to birthday parties that he was at.  He used to bring all his little critters like snakes, centipedes, tortoises and bearded dragons.  It was fun for the kids and adults alike!

For those of you who don't know the story, there's a small zoo called Animal Adventure in Harpursville, N.Y.  They have a giraffe couple April (15) and Oliver (5).  They recently bred for the first time.  The zoo set up a live webcam and almost the entire world watched and waited for April to give birth.  This past Saturday (2 days ago) she finally did!

It's a boy!!

I used three stamps from I Brake for Stamps on April's card.

CONGRATULATIONS SON

SPECIAL, BUNDLE, BABY BOY, BABY GIRL

GIRAFFE IN EGGSHELL

April and her soon to be named calf  are both doing well!

I'll be mailing my card to them today and can't wait to visit them this summer!

I Brake For Baby Giraffes!

I just love giraffes and I love that I was able to combine some that I created myself with an adorable giraffe from I Brake For Stamps! 

On the front of my card I used an IBFS verse called  CONGRATULATIONS SON.

On the inside I used Special, Bundle, Baby Boy, Baby Girl

and Giraffe in Eggshell.

I made the giraffes by cutting various sized ovals and circles from punches and paper piecing them together.
