Baby's First Birthday - Digital Stamp

We're home safe and sound after a few weeks away from the crafting world.  Have you ever made a card in your car before?  It was a first for me - LOL!  Ok, I coloured the digi stamp at home but did a lot of careful gluing on the trip up North in the car and finished off once we got to our destination.  It's hard to post when you're out visiting!   We had a wonderful birthday party out of town for my daughter and nephew who celebrated their first birthday together.  I've been itching to share these party pictures for the past week and now that I am home, I am able to do so.  It was so nice to see everyone and for Serina to visit with her aunts, uncles and cousins who she hasn't seen in a long time!  She was such a good girl, but played "shy" with her Nana and Papa.  I guess that means we'll have to have more visits!

We also took another trip to see my side of the family for the following week to celebrate Serina's 1st birthday.  Lucky girl gets two birthdays and two cakes!  Spoiled much?  She had a great time visiting everyone, going  swimming, and watching her cousin's soccer finals.  I'm sad to be home knowing that school is starting for my son soon and Serina will be off to daycare while I gear up to go back to work!  Heartbreaking to let them go, but, like the rest of the world, we need to hold the fort.  *sob*

 

Over these next few weeks, my digital stamp production will decline.  I want to enjoy these remaining weeks with my family and soak up the last of the summer before returning to my day job.  Once everything settles, I will try to get back on track.  We shall see how it goes, I will try to draw in my sleep if I can, but no guarantees - LOL!  Happy Crafting everyone - but do try to get outside to play before the summer is gone!  With the way this summer has been going, I'm predicting the coldest winter ever...yup, I said the "W" word in August - eeek!

To my dearest Serina,

This digital stamp is dedicated to you sweet baby girl.  It is a true blessing to have you in our lives and you bring us so much joy and laughter. You complete our family and we just cannot imagine life without you.  Love you to the moon and back, always and forever.  xoxo

This digital stamp is called "Baby Serina".  I coloured up this handmade card using Promarkers for her Skin, Hair, and black tones.  Then I used Copics for her pink dress.
