Thank you all for your ideas on quotes...I think I'll have to do a sister's page for my scrapbook and use one - but below you'll see what I really needed them for...
So, I started out with this cute, inexpensive baby-shower gift, which is what the quotes were for...then I got carried away...and made a second gift, and eventually one for my boy's bedroom...Ryan's question was, "so, how much did that set you back?"...No comment. But it was sure fun to do! They're essentially a 12x12 canvas with a 'scrapbook page' on them...I like the blue one best - probably becasue I did it last, and I had it figured out by the time I did it. :)
These two say, "Sugar and spice and everything nice - that's what little girls are made of"
The one that's not pink, is for a mommy who hates pink...so we did green and burgandy...
Tanner's and Taylor's says, "sometimes being a brother is better than being a super hero" by marc Brown...I need to find something else to hang the stars with, but this is hanging above the crib...fun, fun, fun! Now I can put my scrapbook stuff away for a while...I got my fix!

Wow, Deanna. That's really cool. You're very talented. Sometimes, it's O.K. to kinda go overboard on a small project. Sometimes, we all need an "out". Don't feel too bad. ;)
Way way way cute! Oooooo, it looks so much fun! I am jealous! If I have a girl (ever!!!) will you make me one! ;)
We really do need to get together, maybe I can pick your brain. They are really cute. Did you do the text on your computer?
Wow, your blog looks great. And those scrapbook pages hanging on a wall is SUCH a great gift idea!!!
Sorry - it's been a few days, and the first thing I do is mess it all up!!! Emily - i can't get your blog...can you e-mail me? rdpoulsen@gmail.com...And yes, we do need to get together, as long as the RSV thingie is over! And yes, I did the text on my computer - really simple, really. Just a few text boxes does the trick.. Kate - I'd love to make you a canvas...but I somehow think you'd do an even better job than me!!! you do such beautiful work! Tell you what - when we have girls, we'll each make something for each other! Ta for now!
