Card and Invitation Blog Hop

Welcome to my Cricut Craft Room's Card and Invitation Blog Hop
You should have come from scrappingrookie and her Happy Halloween post.
If not please start at http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com for the beginning of our blog hop
 I was so excited to be a part of this card hop.  I have been building baby cards like crazy.  This seems to be the month for having babies.  Pink and blue have been swirling around and causing havoc in my head. 
My first try was kind of OK, but I didn't feel like it was good enough to give away. 
The tag was a baby bottle shape and the stamp didn't seem to fit right.  A few days of sitting at the craft table, working on other project and playing with the paper here is what it turned into.

.I made two for boys and two for girls.  All of the paper is from DCWV Nana's Nursery.  They have a Baby Boy and Baby Girl paper pack.  The strips were embossed with small dot cuttlebug folder.  The stamp is from CTMH Sweet Baby. 
I have blog candy to give away
 Stampn' up "A Flower for all Seasons" and


  CTMH special edition sentiments stamp.
I will post winners for these two stamp sets on Tuesday, August 23rd.  Make sure to check back to see if you've won.
Next you should go to Connies Craft Closet.   
If you get lost along the way, here is the entire line up.....

    I really liked the first card but I love the next two! That 'folded flower' really adds a nice element to it and gives it the something special. Very nice!!!

    I just think it is awesome to see you show the first card and explain that you didn't think it was a good enough card to give away! I thought the baby bottle was an excellent choice to add to the card! I love how you used twine in all three cards! I love these cards and they are all three great in my eyes! Hope you have a great crfating day!
