Next best thing to Helium

Janice Manson‎Wagga's Home Remedies

Instead of using Helium gas to fill the balloons you could use a mix of vinegar with baking soda.

INGREDIENTS:
1 plastic bottle
Balloons
1 teaspoon of baking soda
3 tablespoon of vinegar

DIRECTIONS:
*Add the baking soda in a balloon using a small funnel.
*Add vinegar to the bottle. 
*Place the balloon on the bottle and then lift up the balloon letting the powder reach the vinegar. 
*You will see some bubbles forming and the release of dioxide carbon gas.

Vinegar is acid and when it finds the baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), the CO2 is formed.

Wedding Shower

This card and envelope were made for a wedding shower. I designed this card with my Craft Robo. I used white card stock for the first cut and the silhouette couple was cut from black card stock. Fisker punch for the trim on the front of card and inside for a finishing touch. I was in a hurry and did not design an edge. I printed a scatter of hearts on the front corner of the envelope. I hope Lisa liked the card.

It bugs me about the trim. I will share the GSD file in the future when I fix the border.

Jungle Theme Baby Shower

This is my word book. It is a card for a baby shower tomorrow. I designed the colored background paper and it is included in the GSD file. The "Born to be Wild" graphics by Shelly Comisky can be found at pccrafter.com.
I used my Cuttlebug to emboss each page. It dressed up the back side enough to leave them plain.
Each photo spot is raised with a pop dot. Since this is going to be given at the baby shower ultra-sound pictures will be placed on each page.
I punched holes with my Big Bite and tied ribbon on the rings after I assembled the album.Maybe I'll make another one for a girl. Here are the GSD file which includes that blue background paper: B ; A ; B ; Y For those of you without a Craft Robo I am working on a PDF file.

Diaper Centerpiece

This was a quick picture of a diaper three wheeler. I did make a couple of adjustments to this but did not get a picture before I gave it away. You can find them for sale here

Daddy Diaper Tool Belt

A special tool belt for a new daddy is just the thing to bring a smile to his face or laughter to a baby shower. I have done special orders with a theme in mind. Frogs seem to be the most requested. Graphics are Daddy Dearest by Carolee Jones from pccrafter.com.
