My Best Friend's Baby Shower

This weekend was Erica's shower, and we had a great turn-out. She received some darling stuff...It kind of made me want to have a little girl again! (Not REALLY!)


I am kicking myself, though, because I didn't take nearly as many pictures as I should have. I don't know what I was doing...being a hostess or something.


On to the photos...


The banner outside my house says "Baby Shower" which I printed and cut out. I had originally planned to hang these by a string with clothes pins...but when I actually started making them-I spaced that idea and used ribbon tied through each one.



Here is the table lay out with some delicious food...thanks to Erica's mom and Grandmother and Mother-In-Law. I made the tiny cupcakes on the top tier of the platter, but for some reason, I forgot to take a close-up. They are inspired by Bakerella. Mine didn't turn out NEAR as cute and I didn't put them on the sticks, but they were DE-LISH!


Also, on the ledge of the table you'll see a cute pennant banner or a "bunting" (I used this tutorial on this link.) I sewed these together for decoration all around the house, but of course I forgot to take more pictures. Erica is going to use them in the Nursery too as they coordinate with her colors-Pink and Brown.



And last but not least, the diaper cakes. This was my first time making one of these and thought it turned out super cute...don't look too close though! Oh, and the roses on top...inspired by Mommy Makes Roses





Sorry to disappoint you with the lack of eye candy, if I can, I'll have some other people who were here to send me their pictures.

Digital Scrapbooking Convention

I just got home from a Digital Scrapbooking convention in Salt Lake City, UT. I had a lot of fun and learned a TON! Here are some of the layouts that I did while I was there. I need to work on improving my technique, but practice makes perfect!
