Happy Sunday my friends...I'm popping in with my first card for my guest design spot at The Craft's Meow. We have five fabulous sets releasing this month. The first one up is Baby Shelf. I'll admit to not having a lot of baby stamps. I'm not sure why, but at the age of 42 most of my friends are past having babies...but I always need baby cards. So, I was thrilled to get to play with this new set. I had fun paper piecing that sweet little teddy bear and the coordinating sentiments are fabulous. I decided to frame it with the little scalloped die. To finish it off I stitched (haven't used my sewing machine in a really long time!) and added a big May Arts ribbon bow.

Before I go, I also wanted to share a few pictures from our trip to Miami last week. I didn't bring my camera, so there aren't a ton to share, but you'll see quickly how beautiful it was! The two views below are from the hotel pool. I had two partial days of work on Thursday/Friday, so Pat golfed while a I worked. It was fabulous to get to know my co-workers and their spouses better and to have time to play. I had a massage on Friday, we spent the day at the beach on Saturday, went on a fabulous boat cruise on Thursday (the picture on the bottom right) and had lots of fabulous meals. On Friday night, our whole group went out to an open bar in Miami. We had an absolute blast dancing the night away. Anyone who has ever gone to a wedding or bar with me knows that I love to dance! Five days of spoiling and fabulous time together!

oooooh, I just love this baby card. Super sweet! How nice that you and Pat got to travel to Miami....one of my favorite destinations. Used to live there for a year and a half when Cristina was 18 months old! So a LONG time ago - ha!
What a sweet baby card - you just never know when you might need one (and before you start thinking it, NO not for me!!! LOL!)
What a fab time you had in Miami - what I'd give to see a bit of decent sunshine!

Fun to see your lovely creations at TCM - had to stop by to say how soft and perfect this baby card is :)
Congrats on your GD spot at The Craft's Meow! I just love that soft green ribbon and darling scalloped frame around the teddy bear. The little pearl in the center of his bow is the sweetest detail!
