To the hottest Grandma card (Saturated Canary image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

My darling friend is going to be a Grandma, I can't believe it!! We met in high school and have been buddies ever since and now she tells me her baby is having a baby! (He's a 26yo man mind you so well entitled to have one haha). She seems so young but I guess we are 45, I don't know where the time goes. 

So anyway the reason for my weird card is that she doesn't know what she wants the baby to call her so I used Google Translate to see what I could find in different languages and hence all her choices on the front of the card hehe. She loved it! I used Echo Park papers and Saturated Canary image.

A baby shower card (Stamping Bella image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have finally got a use for this gorgeous stamp from Stamping Bella. I have had it for a while but haven't had a baby shower invitation since haha. The stamp is quite large so I stamped the image then photocopied it onto copic blending paper in a reduced size. Sadly, I can't make the baby shower as it is on the same day as my daughter's deb ball but I thought it would be nice to send a card to my sister-in-law in time for her shower.
