In the pink baby album and blanket

A lovely, dear young lady who I have the
distinct pleasure of sweating with and then whining about said sweat
(when she isn't pregnant)
when we work out.
As soon as I found she was expecting and knew what
flavor said baby would be I got to work.
 Shocking I know.
This was a 6x6 Recollections paper pad.
 With some extra and leftover embellies.





Love how they both turned out and
she totally loved them.
Whew!

What happened at the crop

Stays at the crop!!!
A good time was really had by all 
although it didn't start out that way.

I seriously had second thoughts about going 
as the mojo hadn't been flowing well
for the past month or so,
therefore, when I packed it was haphazard
at best without thought or regard.
THEN......
The morning really didn't go well
and when I finally made it to the crop I was
CRANKY.
To say the least.

Hauled everything out of the car and commenced
to scrapping.
Everything was so disorganized and that it even made me more crankier.

Then the little album I was going to use was a PIA
because even the tiniest bulk didn't work
and broke the page protectors.

So that was eventually scrapped and I broke out 
the chipboard which I should've used 
to begin with....
so I'm glad I did a last minute package of chipboard,
my little hole punch thing and some embellies.

Of course because I am giving the album away, therefore I was more
anxious for it to be perfect than normal.












The crankiness eventually went away as the women
at my table became more interactive
and when the goofin' and silliness started -
the black cloud totally vanished.
And wa-la creativity started to flow
and my goal to finish the album - was met.

Echo Park - baby girl.
And on page 2 my homemade flair badge.

I crocheted a baby blanket and used baby yarn because it
was soooo pretty and reminds me of candy - however, I found it
tough to work with - as my fingers aren't as nimble as they used to be.
 I love that snappy little 
headband I embellished it with and you have 3 choices of bands.
oooo la la



The tag I made to jumpstart my mojo a few weeks ago will be used as a gift tag.
