Welcome baby Sofi

My friend just had her first baby girl-the adorable Miss Sofia. So I kinda had to get off my butt and do something special for her. I came up with this little project that was inspired by the Mojo Monday Sketch. I have to admit it didn't come up too baby-appropriate, but-I guess I never know what the final product will be LOL. I hope you enjoy it. And thank goodness mama doesn't read the blog so it will still be a surprise :)

Butterfly love

I have always loved butterflies. And when Maile Belles came out with the new Beautiful Butterflies Collection I was thrilled. And what do you know-it happened to be my Birthday, so...I got one!!! And I couldn't wait to use them, of course. I created this card and I'm going to send it to the Butterfly Kisses Organization-it's a non-profit organization in Charlotte, NC that is trying to bring some colour and smiles to the world of some not so fortunate kids. Don't hesitate to do so if you can help.

Here is my project :)
