Recently, my dear friend Heidi – the owner of Simon Says Stamp – had a baby girl. And to celebrate, a few of my friends are joining me for an “online baby shower” in her honor!
Here is the card and gift I sent to Heidi and her new baby girl, Abigail Ann…
For this card, I white heat embossed the Magical Background on watercolor paper. I then covered with Worn Lipstick and Tattered Rose Distress Inks and then sprayed it heavily with water + Perfect Pearls. When it dried, I was left with a lovely, pink, shiny background. I then cut a heart with my Silhouette and stitched it in place. Finally, I added a computer-generated greeting…
I get excited anyone has a baby. Why? Because I get to order a personalized shirt from my talented friend, Amy Tan. Her creations are amazing. AMAZING. Who wants a store-bought onesie when you can get something this stinkin’ cute?
And, the back… oh my cuteness…
I love babies. And want one. I always want one. If we up to me, I would be pregnant every day of my life. I loved being pregnant. But thankfully, it isn’t only up to me. 
Now, be sure to visit my friends who are playing along in this “baby shower…”
- Nichol Magouirk
- Kathy Racoosin
- Vicky Papaioannou
- And be sure to tell Heidi “happy baby!”
Big hugs to you, Heidi. Adore you! Give that little girl a kiss from me.

Beautiful card and I love that little onesie, it is so adorable.
Ooo, pretty background.
gorgeous card and love the lush colors! fabulous gift set, Jennifer!
Oh wow!! Love the card and the stunning little onesie!! Amy never fails to amaze does she. I also love the “sheen” you’ve created on the card and the personalised sentiment. xx
Wee Miss Abigail is so blessed to have such lovely “Aunties” around to help her with her creativity as she grows.
Gorgeous card Jennifer! I love how simply amazing your cards always are. This “shower” is so sweet of you guys!
Love your card and the shirt! Please congratulate Heidi for me. I tried to on the Daily Marker, but like so many blogs this week, the comment feature is down and I cannot post there.
Such a great color! Welcome to the world
This is such a beautiful card! I love the personalization. And the stitched heart with the bow is fabulous! Being in a foreign country I can’t keep up with all the new products, nor are they in my budget so it’s so nice to see such a pretty card that I would actually be able to make with the supplies I have on hand. I’m sure your girlfriend will treasure it always.
Gorgeous card!!! And I love the onsie – “future stamper” way too cute!
What a sweet creative gift! Great little shower hop! TFS joy4umetoo at hotmail dot com
Just wanted to comment on how much I love your card and the cute little tie-died shirt! Really beautiful work.
Katie
