And now for something completely different...

Well in style anyways, it is another baby project though! This is a little gift set I made for a friend who prefers earthy colours and more contemporary stylings.It was the first time I made a series of coordinating items to give as a gift. I really enjoyed coming up with different ways to use the same colours & style across the 3 projects, I'm sure there will be more of this in my stampin' future! The onesie card is of course based on the template created by Lauren Meader over at My Time...Creations, I find myself using this one a lot for baby cards.

This set is heavy on the 2008 in colours, it's funny when I first saw them, I was not impressed. I could not think of how I was going to get through a year with these colours. Now with only one month left for this collection I am almost panicking, what will I do without Kiwi kiss, Tangerine Tango, Pacific point or Pink Pirouette?? I'm sure I will survive, after all last year I was aghast that I would have to give up my Wild Wasabi, but I'm still alive and stampin! The up side is that I get to see the new in colours for 2009 on Monday! EEk!! I do love being a SU! demo!! Lets hope they are as fabulous as usual! Though regardless of my first impression, I am sure to fall in love with them once I see what other talented stampin' bloggers have done with them, it happens every time!

Ok back to these projects. I have a confession to make....the onesies stamp on the thank you cards is retired. Sorry! It's from the occasions mini catalogue set By Ones and By Twos. This set is definitely a keeper, you can totally make it boy or girl and there are actually greetings for multiples and adoptions! You don't see that very often. On to the recipes:
