Hello friends! This is my week to choose the theme of the Cricut Challenge at the Bitten By the Bug 2 blog. We all know that I am totally besotted with my new granddaughter with my world revolving around all things Avaleigh! It was very easy for me to select a theme for this week's Cricut Challenge - NEW BABY CHALLENGE (of course)! I challenged the Design Team (and our readers) to create a card, layout, home decor project, or other NEW BABY ITEM. I chose to create a two page layout featuring my favorite little baby girl!
I used four Cricut Cartridges to create these two pages - Baby Steps, First Few Years, Creative Memories Stork's Delivery, and Anna Griffin's Elegant Embellishments. I confess that I have really been enjoying the Anna Griffin cartridges recently. I love the elegant, versatile cuts. I cut the scalloped backgrounds of both pages with Elegant Embellishments. I used Anna Griffin card stock (floral) for the top layer of the background and (blue) for the bottom layer of the background.
I used this adorable double layer rattle on the left page, along with sheer ribbon and pink pearl swirls. I also used the sweet baby girl three layer cut as a title on this page.
The right page has two Cricut cut embellishments, the sleeping baby and the baby blocks. I added pink pearls and a pink bow to the baby cuts and used pop dots to adhere the embellishment to the page.
I hope that each of you will go by the Bitten By the Bug 2 blog and look at the other new baby projects created by the design team. Also, consider joining us this week. This is a fun challenge, if I do say so myself!!
