Clearly Delightful

A RAK clothespin and a baby card

I got this super ADORABLE biggie clothespin and notecard this weekend from the very talented Rebecca Ednie over at Eclectic Endeavours.  Isn't it just sweet?  THANKS REBECCA, I LOVE IT!!

She made it for my 4 month old son, and boy has he grown!  He is now a whopping 16 lb 12 oz, and 25-1/4 inches tall.  I've included a small pic of him and his big sister from a couple weeks ago.  Look at those cheeks!

CARD:

I needed a baby girl card for a shower gift for Sunday, so I decided to use the most precious image from KLM Digital Designs, New Baby.  I printed it with a laser printer on Canson 90 lb watercolor paper and cut it using nestabilities.  Watercolored with dye inks and a waterbrush.  The sentiment is from PTI Mixed Messages (the original).

INGREDIENTS:

• IMAGE: KLM Digital Designs New Baby image and PTI sentiment from Mixed Messages
• CS/PAPER: white, pink, sage, retired SU DP
• INK: pink, guava, blush, sage, rose
• ACCENTS/TOOLS: waterbrush, sponge, sewing machine, nestabilities, pop dots, PTI ribbon, swiss dots embossing folder

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you have a blessed Sunday.

RAK I received!

This is the most AWESOME thing I have ever received!!! This is a gift RAK I received from Bonnie Beal for the Friendship round #3 "swap" at SCS, the person who nominated me was to remain a secret until I received the gift. You can visit Bonnie's gallery HERE.
Poor Bonnie was in anguish when my RAK didn't arrive by May 1 even though she mailed it April 21.... well the box FINALLY arrived (I think yesterday, but I checked the PO box today). Just goes to show that sometimes the PO folks aren't always right on top of a timely delivery.
I was creating a driving hazard for DH while I was practically tearing everything out of the box!!

This gesture is simply the nicest thing anyone at SCS has done for me!

List of gifts (as far as I can see, all Su stuff) are as follows:

• Selection of Earths CS (LOVE LOVE LOVE!)
• SAB Rub-ons (I have been wanting some of these!)
• Dress it up neutral earthy button collection (Cant wait to use them!)
• Clear bubble stick-um word charms (so cute!)
• Lengths of olive and chocolate SU twill and olive 5/8" grosgrain (I didnt have the olive ribbons!)
• A selection of Styled silver Hodgepodge hardware (Awesome!)

Handstamped items include:

• A corkboard with pins
• 7 regular size handstamped cards
• 4 3x3 handstamped cards with a carrying tote
• An expandable card
• A frap bottle of colored chocolate chips (YUM!!)
• A name/ribbon wall hanging using those large flat marbles (I'm going to hang this in my craft room!)
• 2 coasters
• A card thing that holds a small tube of Avon hand moisturizer

Isn't that awesome?? I am just so excited!
A BIG thank you to Bonnie Beal who was my secret friend, and to Heather who maintained the thread from nominations to everyones gifts being received and keeping track of it all!

Wishing you a delightful stamping Sunday!
