baby announcement

Baby l is going to be here before I know it. I love this baby announcement by Inkbox Design...such a cute and creative way to announce the arrival of your new little one.

happy birthday olivia

Today is Olivia's birthday! She is my youngest sister, and I love when she comes to stay with me and we get to create a ton of fun projects.

Here's an idea from a recent birthday idea book we created at QuicKutz. Just cut letters from vinyl on your Silhouette and apply to balloons for an easy and creative way to personalize party decor.

baby face thumbtacks

My little girl loves to name friends and family in photos. I think this project would be fun to make as magnets for her to play with on her magnet board.

glassine bags

Growing up, my Grandma Jerry would give us little white sacks of crackers to eat while we were out playing by the pool or hiking in the hills behind her house. I want to order some glassine bags or white bags to gocco. There are a ton of food packaging websites to order from so I just need to find the best one and place an order.

fingerpaint wall art

I think this project looks like a lot of fun. I'd like to try it on small, square mini canvases while e's hands and feet are still small. You let your child "fingerpaint" canvas and then help them personalize it with handprints and footprints. I think she'd love it.

cd calendar case

My friend Rachel gave my mom a calendar as a gift last year. I found this website which sells the clear cases the calendar is displayed in. They have a ton of sizes and options.
