**If you are interested in purchasing one from me (that I will make according to your colors/theme of choice) let me know. As you can see, there are endless possibilities; one has a flower embellishment, another one I painted the fleur de lis, and the bottom one has glitter paper accented in jewels. I can add words of your choice (Notes, To Do List, names, initials, etc. Again, the possibilities are endless.
I also started making door signs for baby gifts, thanks to my sister-in-law, Anna who made one for Gavin when he was born. My first baby sign (remember the safari, It's a Boy sign) was a learning experience for me, so I just made another one for one of Brooks' cousins whose having a baby and was very excited as to how it turned out. I currently have two more sitting on my craft table right now. I'll post those pictures once I give them as gifts. Those moms read my blog every once in a while.
This sign was a ranch/cowboy/western theme. I didn't know this, but the ribbon is the actual pattern that is on the babies bedding. How fun is that?
I'm also interested in making and selling baby signs as gifts for baby showers or just because. These can be hung on the hospital door once the baby has arrived, on the door of the babies nursery, etc. I can personalize it any way you'd like with the full name or initials; or it's a boy, it's a girl!

This past Thursday, my friend Stephanie and I attended a Beginner Scrapbook class at a local scrapbook store. By no means, are we beginners... check out Gavin's baby book that I scrapbooked.
I wanted to go and see if they would teach ideas for making page layouts, or give special tips for layering items, and/or adding embellishments to pages. I talked Stephanie into going with me because I didn't want to go by myself. In the first 10 minutes, we were both thinking we did NOT need to be there. The instructor was introducing us to paper cutters, adhesives to use, showing what scrapbook paper looks like, etc. However, once we started making our pages, we were really glad we went. We were introduced to this AWESOME little gadget called the "X" something that put adhesives on the back of any object that is smaller than one inch. I'm going to Hobby Lobby first thing Monday morning to get one! We did learn some new things and how to add ribbon to a page, use brads and buttons to enhance embellishments, and the need for different adhesives products for various embellishments. Here are the two pages I walked away with from the class. I'm starting a family photo album and think these are going to be use for Valentine pages.
