It's A Girl! - Baby Shower Party Decor with Pebbles

Hello blogging friends!

Our theme this week over on the Pebbles blog has been party invites. Since I am helping to plan a baby shower for my nephew and his new wife who are expecting a girl, I decided to go with a baby shower theme. The Pebbles Loves Me collection was perfect with all those pretty pink pattern papers and cute die cut ephemera pieces and stickers. I found this cute umbrella bag digital cut file at SVGcuts and could not wait to make these. They are going to look so fabulous on tables at the baby shower! I could fill them with snacks. They would also be awesome as small gift bags.

Each umbrella is created from two different pattern papers. They are not full umbrellas, rather the back is flat. This left space for me to stamp "It's A Girl!" and then embellish with die cuts and stickers. Each one is different.

There are adorable sloths adorning the handles of each umbrella as well as bows.

Don't pack your Loves Me collection away just yet ... Valentines Day is over, but this collection can do double duty for baby girls, Easter, Mother's Day and so much more!

Supplies:

• Pebbles Loves Me – Bouqet of Love Paper
• Pebbles Loves Me – Ombre Stripes Paper
• Pebbles Loves Me – Hearts A Flutter Paper
• Pebbles Loves Me – Paper Pack
• Pebbles Loves Me – Stickers
• Pebbles Loves Me – Die Cuts
• American Crafts cardstock

For Your Shower - Quick Quotes card inspiration

Hello blogging friends. I am trying to complete my bucket list of summer fun this weekend. How about you?
It's a little ironic that I have a Quick Quotes baby shower card to share with you on this Labor Day :) My niece is expecting a boy! I am so excited. I've been crafting baby gifts like crazy. The holidays are going to be so much funner with a little one around. Here is my card ....

I love those Quote Bundles. They have the perfect sentiments for cards; some vellum and some cardstock.
NOTE: To make the vellum quote appear brighter, adhere the quote to white cardstock then trim and adhere to your project. Try Glue Dots vellum sheets for a no show adhesive bond.
