A Gifty Kind of Weekend

If you follow astrology in any way you can sympathize with me when I tell you that growing up I was the lone Aquarius living with FOUR (help me!) Aries.  And aside from dealing with a lot of “passionate” personalities I also had to deal with my mom, dad, sister, and brother all having birthdays within two weeks of each other! 

This past week was my parents’ birthdays and they got the ever popular “photo of the grandchild” gift.  If you haven’t made a photo into a canvas yet I highly suggest doing it! I used CanvasPeople.com for mine because they’ve been running a crazy awesome deal on and off for months where you can get $50 off any size which makes the 8” x 10” only cost you shipping charges.  Score

They got this photo of out little monster:

I also whipped up these sweet burp cloths from cloth diapers for a friend about to have her first baby within the next few weeks.  I love making stuff for babies!

I’m hoping to actually do some scrapping tonight after Mister O is in bed.  I feel so behind and the mojo is going to ‘splode outta me if I don’t work with it!! Smile

Going Green

This month the Right at Home gals have been going GREEN! 

Check out what I repurposed to make this cute container for Owen’s “stuff” when he gets a bit older… can you guess what it originally held?

See the answer and the rest of my post over on the Right at Home blog!

Reflections

Wow, that makes it sound like this blog post will be a heavy one!

Actually I am referring to the new Prima Reflections line that I just revealed at A Cherry on Top!  Who doesn’t love Prima?? I certainly do and the Reflections line is simply stunning.  Check out what I did with the new papers, blooms, flocked rub-ons, and hanging charms in my full article.

This layout was one of my favorites (I am a sucker for orange and teal!)

And this card weighs about seven pounds but I think you’ll agree with me that it’s worth it for all those luscious layers!

Prima Merci

See you tomorrow when I am back with some more BOY fun with Right at Home!
