So remember the family that got the baby boy to adopt and then it looked like they might not get to keep him… well, they have him and everything looks like they are his forever family!! So we are having a baby shower for them tomorrow at my house. I wanted to do something fun and special, so I made this set of ABC’s.
The mom, Amy is an elementary teacher, so I figure she will appreciate the letters and can come up with something to do with them :)
Each letter is on it’s own piece of 6”x6” chipboard and I thought would be great as a wall hanging or clipped together with rings or something. The backside of each letter is covered with paper as well. They come together as a great mix and match album type thing.
Originally I was going to have all the guests sign each letter and use it for a sign in sheet at the shower, but after all the work and since they are just so cute a friend and I decided that they were too cute for people to mess up! So now I still have to make the sign in page.. oh well.
Materials are mostly from CTMH’s Animal Cookies line. I LOVE these papers!! I did add in a couple of other papers as I needed more pages. The alphabet is your standard teacher pop-out letters.
See and you all thought I was just taking it easy not doing anything! I have decided that crafting with a 4 week old, a 4 year old and a 9 year old is really hard and will probably happen only in the middle of the night for quite a while.
I do have lots of in-progress items that I am hoping to finish soon, but man am I tired! I have to remind myself to take it easy and enjoy these precious moments with baby Kylie because in the blink of an eye she will be 4 years old and not need me to hold her all the time.
And just in case you all needed a sweet Kylie Faith fix…
here she is at 4 weeks.
