Oh Baby Midweek Reminder

Goooooooood morning Peeps!!! Glad you could stop by today :-D

I made my midweek reminder card yesterday afternoon as the rain bounced off the ground...so glad I was indoors lol. It's the first proper rain we've had for a while so I guess we can't complain. As long as it remembers to stop and the sun comes out again ;-D

Again I've used Splash Time Baby Baby digi for my card but this time for a boy. 


I've used Echo Park Bundle of Joy Boy 6 x 6 paper pad, MFT Pierced Square dies, Doodlebug enamel dots, Stampin' Up flag punch, Memory Box Typewriter Lower Case alphabet, Fluffy Stuff, Glossy Accents, Copic markers, Bazzill cs and PTI white cs to create my card.


Fluffy stuff isn't just for snow a cupcake frosting...you can use it for bubbles too!


I cut the letters for baby out 4 times each and glued the letters together to give a chipboard look and to give some texture. It also makes it easier to fix slim letters to a project using foam tape.

Coen's Corner

I only had the Wee Man one day last week as it was his other Grandma's turn so took advantage of the good weather to go to the beach in Troon. To say it was packed was an understatement!!! Took ages to park but eventually we made it to the beach where I carried Coen and dragged the buggy across the dry sand. I laid down a towel and sat Coen down where he proceeded to pick up sand from one side and drop it on the other not really bothering that the wind was blowing it back into his face and by the end he looked like a human piece of sandpaper lol.


Moira and Coen invited me to the park with them on Friday. It was another beautiful day and we had some lunch at The Boat House then went to the newly renovated swing park.  We had some icecream then took a few selfies...


Coen has discovered his finger fits in his nose lol!!

I'm pleased to say I'm ALMOST finished the second lot of wedding invitations yayyy! It took about 6 hours in total to fix the 1080 crystals...what was I thinking??? I've only 60 (of 120) inserts left to stick then I'm done! I can go on my holiday (3 weeks tomorrow but I'm not counting!) and not even think about the order of service till I get back. I must say I did not enjoy doing those for Nic and Ben's wedding but I'm going to blank them out for now lol.

Ok that's all for today. I hope you have a great week and get plenty of crafting done :-D

Catch ya later x

That paper is fabulous and love what you have done with the bath bubbles.
I've seen those photo's of Coen before.

See you in a couple of week, when you will be ready to go yourself, hope you have a fantastic time and that you are able to chill out. I know you will miss the big C but he will still be here when you get back.
My Grandson's teacher's loved, loved, loved their Thank Ewe cards so big thanks to Eunice.
