I blogged a handwriting challenge here yesterday.  Be sure to check it out. :)

I am making shower invites for a friend of mine so I made up a few samples to give her a choice. These are the three that I showed her (based on an original design that she liked).

Which one is your fave?

Choice 1

Choice 1 - Bundle of Joy

Option 1 - detail photo

Choice 2

Option 2 - Baby Shower Invite

Option 2 - details

Option 3

You're Invited - Baby Shower Invite

Option 3 - details

To create the embossing I used my Big Shot with the baby themed Textured Impressions (this one and this one).  Love these – especially when I know I am going to need to make a lot of something.

My kidlets are at day camp and my hubby is there as well – teaching – so I am trying something new today.  It is an extremely gorgeous day – warm but not hot (we are having a cool summer) and there is a slight breeze. I kind of feel like I am missing out on all the good weather this summer (I hate winter!) so I grabbed the scrapbook page I am working on and headed to my front porch.

Scrapbooking on my front porch today!

It is so awesome t be outside crafting! 

I have to admit I am totally spoiled because the house we are living in right now has the most amazing covered porch.  Here is one corner of it – where I am working today.my front porch

See that big window?  That is my craft room.  If I need anything it is just a quick pop through the front door and into my room to grab whatever I want. 

I am loving this outdoor crafting thing!

Hope you are having as good a day as I am! :)
