Baby Booties

 

Not really a SAF-project, but I've been meaning to show you my baby booties! I have more in the making, but this is 2 of my very first ones! (Almost made entirely of PTI stuff!)

The upper one uses the "Baby bootie" dies and "details" collections, as well as the horse from "On the farm", "Button stacks II" and the "Western star border duo" (MFT). 

Felt: Dark chocolate, Aqua mist.

And here we have Erin's sand dollar die from "Seasonal stitching: seashells"...
Felt: Aqua mist and Classical craft.

Meet and greet - PTI SAF 2014

Today is a big day, it's the Papertrey Ink Stamp-a-Fair 2014, and this year we're not one but two participants from this household - Lilly and me!

I've not been posting a single post for half a year! The reason is that we got a little baby girl! So to sum it up: I was pregnant, working full time, our baby came waaaay to early and we've been living at the hospital for a couple of months and now - feeding 24/7 (...ah, not exactly, but you get the idea)!

Though Lilly may be the youngest participant in the SAF 2014, she's not new to stamping. She's been stamping with her feet her whole life! She even started as a premature in the hospital at the neonatal ward! As a result I have a collection of stamped images to remind us of how small she was and how much she's growing.

We'll be with you, SAF-ers! But we may do our own thing a bit... I'll be watching all the videos, feeding the tiny one and hopefully make a card or two! We'll see!

See you!

LO no.4 - I love you!

Hi again!
This is my layout no. 4... If you're familiar with Anna Dabrowska's work, you'll see that I am using her techiques on this layout as well. It will probably take awhile before I can find my own style, but I love that I've been able to take some classes from Anna herself - it's a fantastic way to start making layouts.
If you ever have the chance to take some of her classes - do it! She's just as good as everyone says - actually, even better!

LO no. 3 - Beware of the Balloonist!

My 3rd layout ever: Beware of the Balloonist!

My youngest niece is a girl of action and she photographs very well. I've been saving this picture to use with Anna Dabrowska's techniques. Doesn't it look like my little relative is planning her next trip? You know, she's always up to something!
