In a Nutshell

I know I mentioned before that I am really trying to get better about actually sending cards I make. For starters, I know a lot of expectant mothers right now, and one who recently gave birth (OK, it was actually 6 weeks ago, but it seems like just yesterday). I was reading another blog that mentioned she knew a lot of pregnant people too, so I know I'm not alone in this.

I figured if I make one for everybody while I'm in the baby card mode, so at least I'll have them ready when the time comes. Again, the trick is to make sure the mailman gets them. LOL
I got a start on them last night. For some reason I made girl cards and I only need one for sure. Maybe I'll send the extras in for publication?? I still need to make a couple boy baby cards and gender neutral cards. I think the last one shown below can go either way.
I have two friends due in July and in August and the parent's don't know the sex of the baby. If pink is for girls and blue is for boys, I guess I'll mix it together and make purple (wink) for both of them.
I think this last one is my favorite.
