Somebuggy to love

This is for my friends daughter- Alyssa. She admired this cut on the baby page I made for my friend Donna. I thought she'd really like this card. Of course I had to add a pun...I don't think she's as adverse to puns as her little sis Hanna. Anyway...I loved it!

I made this  A2 size card for my God-daughter Hanna. She doesn't like puns. I'm sure she will be harassing her Mom...my good pal...about the incorrect spelling and the fact that puns aren't funny. "I think this is hilarious!" I love how it turned out...gotta love a pun!

Page from Donna's baby book

When one of our pals have a baby...we all get together to make a baby album. I chose February. I already had this paper that I was dying to use...it's too cute. I also decided right away that I had to use these adorable cuts from the Simply Charmed cart. The title "love bug" was also from this cart. What made this layout even more stressful was that it was for my pal Donna...who owns my fav scrapbooking store...who is also an amazing scrapbooker and card maker.Now I know she loves everything people make for her and the thought that went into it...but she's not exactly one of those non-crafters that are impressed by anything. Anyways...I love how it turned out...and I can't wait to see it with a pic of her adorable baby boy. Thanks for dropping by...
