Yep, those are some of the ingredients for her birthday dress I want to make.....I have a special plan for her party attire.....that will include lots of polka dots, ruffles, tulle, shimmer and glitz......she'll look all cute with it on, and then she will happily smear it with cupcakes and frosting, I'm sure!
I just can not believe my little mama is turning 1 already!! This first year, so far, has been absolutely magical in every single way. I'm not going to get into all that gooey stuff, but I will say......she is the absolute SUNSHINE of my entire being and I cherish every single minute we have together, every single day!!
On to a lil Lemon Tree love! I was feelin' a little "dark".... I LOVE how bright papers look against black, so I went for it....and came up with these jumbo "cut out window" cards......
I Heart You Birdie...check it out HERE
I also just finished up a sweet family album & matching card, using that super-duper cute paper from October Afternoon--LOVE the colors! They are from the "County Fair" collection....a must have for paper lovers! (and look, there are no owls on it--can you believe it??)
BUT.............wait ( you know I had to sneak some in!)

Your blog and shop are a total hoot! I've never seen so many collections of owl thingy's. I personally don't like any birds (I have a huge bird poop issue) but gotta admit those little owl guys are growing on me.
Anyway, my favorite thing on Nicoart's blog is the hedgehog stamp. My son loves anything hedgehog and he doesn't even know what they look like. But he thinks the word is hilarious and uses it on anything whenever possible. Now his little sister is saying it too except she can't pronounce it - it comes out as heckhock. Thanks for the chance to win! have a great weekend.
hi
..they are so cute i would have to say i like the Little red riding hood set.
Ummm WOWZA what a fun giveaway!! Ok...so I was just nosing around at the stamps and love SO many of them!! I already bookmarked the shop as a fave!!
The owl of course because I love them these days! But I also love the little gnome because he is WAY too cute and the hedgehog because I am developing some weird liking of them!! I have seen them all over the new fall stuff!!
Okay...how incredibly clever are those save the date tags for Miss Lilyana???? What a FUN idea missy!! That has my mind in overdrive thinking of all the possibilities for Gentry next year!!
Love the polka dot theme! You will have SO much fun with that! You know my love of all things party so be sure to let me know if you have any fun ideas to bounce off me!!
Have a wonderful holiday weekend! I am so excited to have my husband around for an extra day with how much he has been working lately!!
Ohhhh...there are too many fun stamps, I love the gnome. He is a cutie and the hedgehog, too.
And... oh how your fabric tags are soooo adorable!!!

Oops, forgot that my favourite item is the hedgehog stamp! - Chantelle
Can't wait to see your babe's party dress!
Love all of your owlly stuff!
I'd have to say the little hedgehog is my favorite stamp. It is so adorable.
What a fun blog you've got! The photos of the adorable baby, the glorious craft projects- what a barrell full of kawaii :)
Although I do love the stamps, I'd have to say my favorite piece from her shop would have to be the River Child original artwork. The colors are amazing, the theme is original, and the work is top notch. Thanks for having such fun giveaways, what a neat idea!
Whats not to like? I like everything. The owl and the goat are so darling. Well so is the elephant. I love them.
My favorite thing from Nicoart's esty stop is the the "2 Inch Light Gnome." I am obsessed with garden gnomes of all stripes and it's so nice to see such a happy, little guy! Usually they're a little grumpy at having to stand around the garden guarding the flowers!
hi! ok i love the owl stamp! and the Le Petit Cafe Set
i just love the little coffee mugs! i am a coffee addict so it is my second favorite. great giveaway! thanks for a chance!

What cute stamps. I love the Tabby Cat stamp, probably because I have a Tabby cat. The hedgehog is a close second to the kitty stamp though. :) What a fun give away.
I love the squirrel stamp! They are my favorite animal ever!
My favorite is the Dark Owl stamp. It's so adorable.
