LM 444 - Stamp Your Stash - Alpha Stamps

This month at Lasting Memories, we are stamping on our layouts.  This week, our challenge is to use alphabet stamps on your layout.

I have been working on layouts from last Christmas (2018).  I used alphabet stamps to stamp the words "A very merry" to go along with the word "Christmas" which I cut out of patterned paper.

I am trying to bash some of my Christmas stash (I have a TON!).  I found this old Simple Stories collection that I have had for several years.

Supplies:

Cardstock by CTMH

Baby Shower Decor

I was just at a baby shower on Sunday and it got me thinking... I never posted pictures of any of the crafts that I created for my nephew/godson's shower IN FEBRUARY OF 2018.  At the time, we did not know if it would be a boy or girl.  The theme was jungle animals. 

This is the diaper cake that I made.  My sister in law LOVES peacocks

and I found one at Target, so I had to place it on top of the cake:

This is a diaper wreath I used on the door leading into the shower

These were the favors.  My sister in law loves popcorn!

These were the centerpieces.  I made them with my cricut. 

 The punch bowl had lots of rubber duckie animals in it

Baby Shower Card for a Baby Boy

I went to a baby shower this past Sunday.  I needed a quick card, so I pulled out some project life cards and this is what I created.

I used 3 of the 4x6 project life cards.  There's one for the background on the front and one for the inside.  The word "baby" was cut from a third card.  The stork was one of the ephemera that came in the set.

 Front: 

Inside: 

In the last couple weeks, I have been obsessed with my envelope punch board!  Here's the envelope that I made for this card:

A friend of mine just opened a bridal boutique.  A couple of my friends and I went in together to buy her a Keurig machine, an assortment of K cups and a carousel to display the K cups.  I made this card to accompany our gift.

I have been trying to finish up my 2017 scrapbook.  This is one of the last Christmas layouts that I needed.  I loved the starburst in the sketch and I wanted to make it with Christmas papers.
