Now on with the projects.

For my project I chose to make a Baby shower card. I picked a baby girl card. I got the file from the Silhouette design store. Lori Whitlock is the designer of the file. I love how the crib pops up when you open the card. I recycled a baby card and cut out the animals and added them to the shelf and on the floor of the nursery. I even scored the wainscoting. This has been one of my favorite cards to make.

Baby Ducky Treat Box

I am so happy that I get to share this Easter treat bag with you. The file I used is called Baby Ducky - Duckie W Easter Basket and you can find it  Here. The treat box is a file that I got from The Silhouette Online Store. I did change the ducky file a little, I made the ducky holding the chocolate bunny instead of the Easter basket. I think the bunny is so much cuter.

Blue Birds

Today I want to share with you an adorable Blue bird card and a sweet big Blue bird. When  I saw these adorable blue birds I knew they would make a cute card. I didn't realize how big the second bird was.( I suggest reducing the size if you want to use it on a card.) You can find these adorable Blue birds at www.papercraftingworld.com. Go to the left side of their page and click on Cutting files and select Seasons and choose spring. When you visit look around and you will find so much inspiration.

Thank you for visiting me. Have a great day!
