Clearing the Clutter Challenge #9

Welcome to another month of Clearing the Clutter! For those of you who are new, go check out this post to get caught up to speed. In a nut shell, it's my personal mission, once a month, to clear/finish something that's been sitting on my desk for too long. It gives me a sense of accomplishment and cleans up my desk as well. :)

For today's post, I was clearing out a shelf on my desk and found all of these cuts that I'd been accumulating. They were either the wrong size for the project I was working on, I made extras, or I just decided not to use it. So I decided to make some cards out of them and use up some of my scraps as well. A two-fur, you might say. :)

For this one, I took a bunch of flowers that I'd cut and layered and curled them so they'd pop up. I may go back and cut out the it's a girl again since this is the shadow feature.

I LOVE how this one turned out. I got the idea from a blog, but can't for the life of me remember whose it was. If this was yours, please let me know so I can give you credit. It had an N on the onesie. Thanks!

I'm still not too sure how I feel about this one but I know that my niece will love it. Her name is Alea and her bedroom is filled with butterflies. :)

Last one. This one turned out really fun. I used Pink by Design's 'Here Comes the Bride' for the sentiment. Just goes to show that just because the set is for one thing, it doesn't mean they don't fit other occasions.

Welcome Home!

My brother's girlfriend has been in Africa on a mission for the last 3 months and just came home. A bunch of people gave cards to put all over her room for when she came home. Here's the card I made. I found the directions on THIS post by Creations by Christie. It's made from one 12x12 sheet of paper and this one holds 3 tags.

Tag #1 - from me!

Tag #2 - From Carver. He drew a picture on the back (the back is white)

Tag #3 - from Chris. This page didn't have a design so I put rhinestones and stickles on some of the dots.

12x12 Paper - Target dollar section
Ribbon - JoAnns
Pink/Blue/Purple paper - scraps
Flowers - Accent Essentials at 2.5, 2 and 1.5"
Baby Blue stickles

Another Baby Shower

We had another baby shower at church and I volunteered to do the shopping again. This time I had my sister-in-law, Kim, with me so it was a little easier. I was able to get a carseat for one of the ladies and a Pack 'n' Play for the other. I would've gotten a carseat for the second lady but they didn't have it in stock at the Babies R Us I went to and it wasn't at the other one that's close. Bummer. :(

Here's the cards I made for them. I found the directions from THIS site.

White: Reflections
Pink: Bazzill 'Chablis'
Flower & Argyle: Both from Target dollar section

Boy Circles: Cloud 9 Design 'Bouncing Baby Boy'
