Sweet Pea

I missed out on Jen's SFYTT two weeks ago and I really wanted to give it a try. I needed to make a baby card for one of my dearest friends who is expecting any day now! The outfit that I got her said "Sweet Pea" on the front, so I knew that the pea pod image from Baby Button Bits would be perfect. I paired it with some of the new October Afternoon papers that I got last week and wanted to use.
The actual "Sweet Pea" sentiment is from the SU! set called "Little Angel". My mom got it a while ago and lent it to me, so I was excited to actually get to use it. The "Cute and Cuddly" sentiment is also from the Baby Button Bits set. I just rounded the acrylic stamp onto my block so that it would fit nicely into the circle.

I packaged it up into a Kraft box and added a tag ( I didn't have a chance to photograph it) but I used the Papertrey "Little Sweet Pea" sentiment on that. I couldn't resist adding a jar of Gerber peas along with her gift. I am *all about* working the theme! LOL!

Rowan turned 3 Months old on the 20th, so it was time for a photo shoot. Unfortunately, the day got away from me and it was getting too dark for me to use any natural light. I pulled up all the shades in my bedroom to get any light I could, but it got too dark too fast. I used my little brain and had my daughter bring up one of my OTT lights from my desk and I got to work. Rowan wasn't in any kind of smiling mood, but I really like what I captured. I love those little lips and chubby cheeks. He had finally had it by the time I was done, so I did get some adorable "sad" pictures with his little lip turned down; the one that breaks my heart, but is precious and part of him, all the same. I will have to share those later. I will be back tomorrow with a "current" SFYTT! LOL!

Thanks for fluttering by!!!
