I used my cricut to cut the leaves and the butterflies. The leaves are from A Child's Year and the butterflies are from Stamping. I added lots of stickles and the butterflies also have some bling and pearl paint accents. I found the little white flower stems on clearance @ M's. The pics really make the cuts look washed out but they have been chalked as well and look much better in person.
You can never have too many binkies....am I right?
Lots of little baby girl goodies tucked in around the cake....the little socks are tied with curling ribbon.
I am very happy with the way this turned out and given the opportunity would surely do another one. It was a hit at the shower except that Mommy did not want to take it apart....LOL...but we promised her the cutest onsies were in the center so she would have to! Like a little hidden treasure!
Hope you are all having a great weekend....thanx for stopping by!
This is absolutely adorable - I'm sure it was a very big hit at the shower! I wouldn't want to take it apart either!

Sandy, what a beautiful group project. My baby is almost 23 and I still remember the diapers, there were never enough, LOL. I bet she was deeply touched with all your sharing. Sandi
ReplyDeleteSo very cute, I am so wanting to make one of these. No baby showers in the near future for me. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteOh it's just so gorgous Sandy! I can see why she wouldn't want to take it apart :) You know what you're talking about with the onsies, you can never have enough of those and bibs!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you're so excited about another niece. I know my aunt loves my girls like grand daughters instead of great-nieces.
Hugs,
