10% Off Sale Continues & A Baby Project

Good morning and happy Sunday!!!! What's new??? I've been busy here at the house working tons from home and taking care of Little Keith who will be 2 in a couple of weeks and is already acting like he's 2. Poor little guy had a nightmare the other night, woke up screaming AND (so sad) fell out of his crib for the first time. I thought I'd throw up when I saw him on the floor. It was a traumatic night for everyone. I hope that NEVER happens again. Thank goodness we have carpet!
Anywhoo... I had been working on this baby project for some time and finally finished it and am excited to show it to you today. I have made a similar project in the past, but this one is sort of girly and fun and is specifically purple to match baby Cecilia's nursery. So this is for my friend Rachel who is a doll and just had her first, baby Cecilia in November. So better late than never with my gift, right?!
This project features an 8 x 8 shadow box frame which I painted white and filled with all these cute little inchies and features baby's birth info. I love the way it turned out. I hope she loves it too!
On another note, I just sent a submission to become part of the Stamptacular Sunday Challenge design team. SO we'll see!!! Keeping my fingers crossed!
Also, don't forget about my sale through March 31st!!! 10% off all Stampin Up orders placed through me and who doesn't want to save?? Right?? Simply e-mail me your order to lpryor1@hotmail.com.
Thanks everyone for stopping by! Enjoy your day!!

p.s. I will be posting ingredients of this project at a later date and time so I can go and finish cleaning! {sarcastically} "yayyyy"

Home Decor Project

So I was just getting around to putting out some Valentine's Day decorations...changed my placemats and table centerpiece and I was inspired to make a little something for the door in the kitchen that leads to the basement. So here is what I came up with. I was very much inspired by the beautiful banners that Kelly Lunceford makes.
What you can't see in the picture is that the Very Vanilla main panel is dry embossed with the SU! large dots texture plate, but it didn't photograph well!!! New Year's Resolution...commit to taking better photos of my projects!

Baby Gift by Special Request

Good morning, All! My friend, Suzanne, asked if I would make her a baby gift for a friend of hers. She specifically requested an eclectic item that wasn't too baby-ish or too girly and something that could be displayed in any area of the house and for a long time. So I opted for classy but non-girly colors of brown, kiwi and blue. She also wanted for this item to show the baby's birth details.
I've seen a lot of these types of home decor items from various other designers on Splitcoast Stampers and I had been dying to make one myself and this was the PERFECT opportunity!
Here is a link to the design that inspired me the most which I decided to CASE (copy and share with everyone). I had this shadow box from a project I intended on doing and then never did. So I changed my project to fit this shadow box frame.
Ingredients:
Stamps: Season of Friendship, Pocket Silhouettes, Great Friend(SU!)
Paper: Kiwi Kiss, Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze cardstock, several retired designer series papers
Ink: Versamark, White Craft(SU!)
Punches/Dies: 1.25 square, 3 hearts, 3/4 in circle, scalloped circle, 1 1/4 circle, 1 3/8 circle, large star, scallop border, birds & blooms die(all SU!), small flower, small scallop circle (local craft store)
Accessories: glazed brads(Basic Grey), kiwi kiss satin ribbon, chit chat rub-ons, kiwi corduroy button, baja breeze button (button bouquet), filigree brad(all SU!), hemp twine (my stash), pearl stickers (Marc Richards), sewing machine, 'Love' rub on is from my stash, used Angelina font and Microsoft Word for baby birth details

I think I got everything. If you have a specific question about items used, please feel free to contact me.
