Truly a Bundle of Joy!
What a nice surprise to be asked by the mega-talented Anna Wight to be a Guest Designer for her new line of stamps with Whipper Snapper Designs! Yes, yes, YES!! I was just a bit excited (lol) and even more so when I saw the first set, Bundle of Joy.
Congratulations
I can’t show a baby frame without a cute baby, right? Meet my nephew, Zack. Isn’t he cute? Actually, he’s five now but still totally adorable.
I thought I’d make a little gift set using the sailboat and star. The frame was a Target Dollar Spot find. Since the photo is not covered by glass but a thin, removable piece of plastic, I had to be creative in getting the sailboat to appear to “float” over the photo. I stamped the image onto a transparency using black Stazon then paper-pieced the sailboat, stamping onto the back sides of the Crate Cowboy patterned paper. Once the pieces were adhered to the transparency, I carefully cut around the sailboat, and attached the water to the backside of the patterned paper frame cover. (The actual boat is not attached to anything but upheld by the transparency.)
Don’t miss out on samples by Anna’s other March/April designers. I think we all had a fun time with this set!
I’ll be back soon with more! Thanks so much for stopping by!

I’m overwhelmed by everything new you’ve created since my last visit and I don’t know where to start! One at a time, I guess. First of all, YES–he’s a serious cutie pie! I love your choice of papers for the boyish image and the way you floated the boat–genius! I’m loving Anna’s baby set!
