Shhhhh...Don't Tell Bethie!

My friend Beth had her 6th child last week. All her online "Aunties" have been anxiously waiting for the birth of this sweet little baby. Genevieve Elizabeth arrived on July 19th to tears of joy from her siblings and parents. Welcome to the world sweet baby. This special occasion definately called for a special project! So I decided to make a keepsake tin with a little scrapbook for baby Evie. These wonderful supplies all came from my favorite online store, Eclectic Paperie. The Rectangle Tin is from Provo Craft, the pattern paper is the Pristine Collection by Paper Salon, the die cuts are from CuttleBug and the lettering was made using my Cricut & the Jasmine Cartridge. I used lots of fun supplies on this project!

Here are a few pictures from the scrapbook.


Congrats to the entire family! Now I need to get this packed up and in the mail.

WOW! Six children?!? God bless her! Bethie will love this, and I'm sure Evie will treasure it when she is older. It's just gorgeous.

So sweet! This is a gift that will be treasured forever! I am also impressed by the timeliness. I do a cross-stitch for my friends when they have kids, but they usually don't get it until 6 months to a year after the child is born! Oh well...they are still treasured. By the way, I have linked to your blog from mine...love your stuff. Check out mine and let me know what you think...just getting started: craftyengineering.blogspot.com

Gorgeous!! Once again, you did a beautiful job and you are a wonderful friend! I liked to see those colors used with brown, it gives me some ideas! I never would have thought of putting them together myself.
