Baby Thanks from Joette

I received these cards from my sweet friend Joette. This card uses one of SU!'s retired wheels with all the cute babies on it! The background uses the thank you stamp from Seeing Spots.
This card uses the stamp set Sweet shapes. Both these cards are So Pretty and Fun. Joette is SO Talented!

Sweet Heart

This wonderful card was made by my wonderful friend, Jamie Lantz. She made this card for me for a surprise get together with all my friends that Debbi organized. This happened before my baby was born. I wanted to share this cute card that everyone signed.

So here is the other sample I made. The wedding is going to be pink and black and this is what I came up with. I love how it turned out, it reminds me of Audrey Hepburn. I love her movies!
I thought the So Swirly Wheel was perfectly elegant for a wedding, this would also work for a birthday gift or for a "just because your special" gift.
Supplies:
Stamp Sets: Warm Words, So Swirly Jumbo Wheel
Paper: Pretty in Pink, Basic Black, Whisper White
Ink: Basic Black
Accessories: Black Grosgrain, Pretty in Pink Taffeta, Linen Thread, Jumbo Eyelets Pewter, Crop-A-Dile, Scallop Circle Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, 1 1/4" Circle Punch, 3/4" Circle Punch, 1/8" Circle Handheld Punch
