YOU GOTTA SEE THE BABY.....

Does anyone remember that episode of Sienfeld? I only watched the show a couple of times and that was one of them. The mom kept saying they had to see the baby and then the baby turned out to be really ugly (or so they said, because they never showed us the baby). Anyway, I have never seen an ugly baby myself. But I digress......

I actually got to make a card for a baby shower. It is a nice break from the birthday and sympathy rut I seem to be in. This card was for a friend's daughter who is expecting a little boy. I have made the onsie cards before --- they are so cute, yet so easy. This one was stepped up a notch because of a card I saw here. But this project did not go off without a hitch. I had completed my first try and was stamping the sentiment inside, when I got black Stazon on the front of it. I was so..... mad (the dots were me counting to five so I wouldn't say a bad word). But all's well that ends well, I like the second try much better. And here it is.......

I used a retired SU! DSP called East Coast Prep. The froggie is from the retired set Very Punny. You can tell this outfit was made in China --- the neck cutout wasn't centered as well as I would have liked with the bib straps. But I think it turned out pretty good.

And the baby was born on Wednesday (I think) and everyone is doing well. So....

Congratulations to Jill and Gary
