"Labor Day!"

I couldn't seem to upload yesterday. Not quite sure what the problem was, but things are back to working today so here is my contribution to this week's Blogger's Challenge. The theme is baby and that's where the "Labor Day" title of this post came from (plus it's Labor Day weekend here in the States). It has been an incredibly busy week for me. I started a new full-time teaching job on Monday (Yippee!) It is in our district, so my little one can take the bus to and from my building to the other elementary school and that makes life oh, so much easier! However, the start of school has left me very little stamping time, so when you need to get a project done quickly, you look to the pros. In this case, Lauren Meader's fantastic Baby Onesie pattern. All of her details are here. I paired up this baby boyish, argyle, Bo Bunny paper with Stampin' Up's Certainly Celery. The sentiment is from Stampin' Up's Nursery Necessities, and those sweet, little buttons are from Making Memories. For more baby ideas, be sure to check out what the other Ladies in the Blogger's Challenge group came up with (link is in my right sidebar). Have a Happy Labor Day weekend, and thanks so much for stopping by...Toodles! :D

good luck with your new full time job. I'm sure once you get "settled" in you'll find a little more stamping time.

Great onesie card! I love the colors you chose for it.

Kimberly,

The card is very sweet, great job. Also, congratulations on the new job. Sounds like you'll now have a little extra money for stampin supplies, but a lot less time for enjoying them. The job sounds great for you - especially since it works so well around your sons schedule. Hope to see you at one of the next stamping events in Uxbridge.
