Can't Wait to be an Auntie!

I'm gearing up for my sis to have my first niece or nephew in just a few months. Here are two card designs for baby shower invites. I am still up in the air on which color combo I like better. What do you think? It's hard to tell in the photos but both are also dry embossed with polka dots.

Embossing with the Big Shot

Here is a sweet birthday card I made for someone special for next month. It uses the Manhattan Flower Textured die for the Big Shot - a great and quick way to do dry embossing. I can't decide if it needs a sentiment on the front too or just inside... Suggestions?

The "It's About Time" Post

Yes, it's about time I finally posted something, but I have been swamped with work, job hunting, and house selling lately and have had very little time to stamp anything. As penance, I have two items to show. The first pic are the valentine's gifts I made for my daughters' daycare classes. One uses a fantastic Sale-a-bration set you can get free right now when you spend $50, so I guess it is still somewhat timely. The other uses the Big Shot petal card die to wrap a treat. The second pic is a birthday card I made my mom. She LOVES her Scottie dog, Cali, so this card is especially for her!
