Sorry for the absence...........

I am so sorry that it has been a couple of weeks since I have posted.  Things have been crazy busy!!  Between the normal things of life such as job, cleaning house, buying groceries, etc we are beginning the countdown to the arrival of our first grandchild - Charlea May.  I am beside myself and cannot wait to be a grandmother (hopefully she will call me CiCi) :) .

Sooo one of the things I want to share that I have been working on is the invitations to one of the baby showers for my daughter!  So here it is....

I so enjoyed making these!!  I have something else I have made but shhhh it is a secret until after the shower!!
