It’s a Girl!

May8

We received wonderful news last week: Mr. Petrie’s sister is having a baby girl! We wanted to send a celebratory package, so we made a couple of handmade gifts. Mr. Petrie knitted this adorable pink hat. Isn’t he amazing?

I made a card with some cool new crafting supplies. My friend Denise gave me a fabulous Martha Stewart pink glitter and glue kit. The glue pen is amazingly fine. It was almost like writing with a real pen. I recently bought vintage inspired paper at Michael’s. I think it’s fancy, but whimsical paired with the pink glitter. The chipboard frame is from the Dollar Tree and adds a little extra dimension to the card.

Pink hats and glitter, what could be more Pink Saturday? Enjoy the other pink posts!

Go Mr. Petrie! You gotta love a man that can knit. Your handmade card was beautiful too, more special than a store bought card. I’m sure the proud parents will love it. Happy Saturday and have a great weekend!

What a beautiful card!! Wow, a husband that can knit, I am impressed.

I received the giveaway box in the mail!! It felt like Christmas with all of the neat goodies. Thank you again. I will be blogging about it later today.

How absolutely wonderful! Beverly sure knew what she was doing when she created a place for all of us “pinkies” to congregate and share our “pinkness”.

Happy Mother’s Day to you. I hope you find yourself surrounded by those you love, good food, and a gentle peace in your ♥. We don’t need to be a mother to know a mother’s life. After all we all started out with a mom, didn’t we?☺

What a darling hat Mr. Petrie made there. I’ve been wanting my DH to learn how to crochet. He seems interested when I dabble around and he rolls my yarn for me. Your card is adorable! I’ll have to look for that Martha Stewart glitter.
