A Sprinkle today!


The Ellen Hutson team is having a Sprinkle [a baby shower for a second baby - or third, and fourth!]  for a fellow Design Ambassador, Emily who is expecting twins!  You can see all the cards our team has made here.

I pulled out a few EBE sets to use today … see if you can guess where these items came from... btw, the words are all mine =]



Give up?  Okay... here you go:
Eggs, and nest: EBE Backyard Bird Friends stamps, and dies
The branch: EBE Thistle stamps, and dies 

Distress Oxides were used to color my eggs! 
shaded lilac, weathered wood, and vintage photo for the branch.

This card is on its way to Emily and her family - hope it arrives before the babies do!  

Just for fun, I made another - are you familiar with my sense of humor?  ... cue the music...




I found the perfect sentiment in Julie's EBE A Breve Note and the OOH was snitched from HOORAY in EBE It's all Good! 

Congratulations, darling Emily, to you and the entire family!!!  I'm so happy to celebrate you today!  love, and snuggles for those darling babies!

You just knock me out...first, a incredibly sweet and impeccably designed card for an expectant mother and then a bright, happy, colorful and totally hilarious message. All in one post. What a pure delight and you wrote them yourself. Awesome.

Such a fun and vibrant second take, Michele, it's a riot ... and that second on is just a delight! Love how you softly coloured those little eggs in the nest ... hope there's room for mummy and daddy in there too! Hugs, Anita :)

I did not know that celebrating a second or beyond baby was called a sprinkle. I guess I live under a rock or something. That is SO cute! And so are your cards. That little nest is just adorable. And now I have a line from a song I can't even name stuck in my head, thanks so much. Thank goodness it was worth it so see the great card you created! Love the embossing and how you filled in the spaces with extra color. You are too funny with the sentiment! Thanks so much for sharing (I think). Happy weekend!

Not one, but two awesome baby cards, Michele! Love the way your mind goes!

How adorable are those eggs in the nest, Michele. And then you went way off in the other direction with that bright and cheery word card. Both are terrific!

Love both baby cards, Michele! The soft coloring of the eggs and sky is absolutely beautiful! I love your sentiment on the front panel and the words inside. So witty and sweet.

Love, love, love these cards, Michele. Love that little nest with the speckled eggs. Love the colors, and that subtle sky in the background. So calm and lovely. The second is so fun, and the sentiment made me laugh right out loud.
