Celebrate new beginnings

Throughout high school and college, I did a lot of babysitting. Babies and toddlers were my favorite age group to care for. I loved cuddling with infants and seeing the joy of exploration from toddlers. They were so excited with every new word they spoke, new animal they saw and every new action they could do. They were loving life. Being around children reminds me to enjoy life - all of it because it truly is a precious gift from God.

This weekend I decided to work on baby cards. I thought of the children I used to babysit and my friends who are expecting as I crafted.

No matter under what circumstances a child enters the world, it's still a reason to celebrate.

Each card is crafted with care. I do not have duplicates of these cards so these are truly one of a kind. If you would like a custom card to commemorate the arrival of a bundle of joy, just let me know.

Have a great day. Be like a kid and enjoy every minute of your life.

Oh Baby!

I have several friends who are having babies this summer. One friend is due any minute and another is due at the end of August. I wanted to start working on some cards for them.

Designing cards usually takes me the longest so I surfed some YouTube videos to get my creative juices flowing and came up with an original design.

I wanted this card to be simple and versatile. I took one design and did different twists to each card making it like an entirely new card. If you ever have to make multiple cards, it's a good idea to find one design that you like and use in different ways.

This card can work for other occasions as well. Change the footprints to a cupcake and you have a birthday card. The baby to a flower and you have a sympathy card. The possibilities are endless.

These cards will be listed this week in my Etsy shop, which you can find here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/yourssincerelygifts

Happy Crafting!

Yours Sincerely
