My brother and his wife are expecting their first baby in about seven weeks. They were really excited about the decorating possibilities when I showed them the Decor Elements catalog. They picked out a few they wanted to put up to decorate the baby’s room. I went over today to show them how the Decor Elements work, and to help put up the first one. Together we put up this adorable Chocolate colored Robot, right over the changing table.
They also have some monkeys and the animals from Wild About You to put up as well. I’ll be sure to post pictures of their finished nursery.
My friend Krystal just started a new stamping challenge blog, Stampin’ Celebration. It’s a weekly party themed inspiration challenge. This week’s challenge features super cute robots. Check it out if you are looking for new ways to stretch your creativity!
I was over at my friend Beth’s house in Massachusetts last week. She’s another Stampin’ Up demonstrator and lives right near my parents’ house. I try to visit her everytime we go back there, because she and I have completely opposite taste in stamps! It’s true! Whenever we compare notes, we’ve bought completely different stamp sets! So when we get together we swap stamp sets and it’s a lot of fun. Here are two cards I made using her Lots of Bots set.
Stamps: Lots of Bots
Ink: StazOn Jet Black, Bordering Blue, Night of Navy, Ruby Red
Paper: Bordering Blue, Night of Navy, Ruby Red, Whispering White
These cards made think of the song “Mechanical Man” by Bent Bolt & the Nuts. They’ve been playing it a lot on Kids Place Live, the Sirius/XM channel that Eve and I listen to everyday to and from school. It’s a very strange song and people either love it or hate it. You can listen to it here.
