CRISTINA’S BLOGAVERSARY BLOG HOP


Welcome to
CRISTINA’S BLOGAVERSARY
BLOG HOP


Cristina over at http://www.craftingwithcristina.com/ is a wonderful paper crafter with loads of talent. We’ve even had the pleasure of meeting in real life (since we live in the same area) So, along with Erin from http://www.spantastikreations.blogspot.com/ (another Western New Yorker) we met up at a crop night at Michael’s.

That’s Cristina on the left, I’m in the middle and Erin is on the right.
 
 
 
 
Cristina asked that our inspiration for our project be based on one of her past creations.

The first thing that came to mind was her sweet little one. In Cristina’s videos, I love seeing those busy little fingers helping her mommy (and I’m sure one day this little cutie will be doing paper crafting videos of her own) hehehe. Oh how I miss having those busy little hands in my own home.

My baby girl turns 16 on the 24th ~ Easter Sunday HAPPY BIRTHDAY ABBY ~ I LOVE YOU!!
My oldest daughter is 23 and my son recently turned 20.

So here’s my tribute to the creation I love best…..Cristina’s little girl.  I hope you like it.








 
Little girl and sentiment stamp is Pure Innocence for My Favorite Things.
The tree is from the JUST BECAUSE CARDS cartridge and the hills are from COUNTRY LIFE.
I had to put a little kitty on this card because her little one just got a real life new kitty friend of her own. It’s from KATE’S ABC’S.  The little butterflies - MARTHA STEWART PUNCH.

Afterthought ~ I went to the LSS (Buffalo Stamps and Stuff) AFTER I took these pictures and I bought a Spica marker in Lemon and added some sparkle to the butterfly wings.
