Kit Cat Sunday!!!







Good morning!  Happy New Year!!!!!  It's the first Sunday of the month, and that means it's time for another Kit Cat Challenge.  This month was my turn to be the hostess, and as I told the girls, I've got babies on the brain.  Partly, because it's a new year, and with that we instantly think of the Baby New Year, and new beginnings, but mostly, it's because of Baby Max that I've got babies on the brain.  We sure enjoy that little bundle of sweetness, and with that being said, this is my take on our challenge this month.  

 I sent out the kits last month, and included the Winter Baby in Teacup image from Peachy Keen Stamps, along with brag book/photo albums, glitter, glue pens, assorted pearls, pink and blue organza ribbon, and this gorgeous sparkly, embossed card stock from My Mind's Eye Deena's Penny Lane Collection.  I wanted to give our Kit Cat lovelies total creative freedom on this to create the brag book, scrapbook page, card, or whatever they felt creatively challenged to do.  As you can see, I took mine and made a brag book for Baby Max, of course.  Now all I need to do is get the gazillion pictures I've taken developed and get this book filled up.  When someone asks me if I've got pictures of my grandson, they're not going to have a clue what they're in for!!  LOL!!!  I can't wait to share these!!!!
 Here's the latest picture of Max, taken just a few minutes ago.  He's sporting his I Love Grandpa shirt today.  I have to laugh, because I'm always saying  to Cassidy, "Oh, that's a cute outfit.  Where'd that one come from?".  Most of the time her reply, complete with sheepish smile is "You got it for him".  LOL!!!  What can I say, other than he's even more addicting than stamping!!!!!

Now, please head on over to the rest of the Kit Cat's blogs, and check out the wonderful things they've done with their kits.  
All have wonderful creations in store for you.  I've already visited a couple of them, and they totally took this challenge to the limit!  NOW, I need to go back for a second drool, and leave them some well deserved love!!  Thanks for stopping by today!  Have a blessed day and I hope the new year will bring you  many blessings and lots of happy stamping!

Okay - color me stunned. Your book is A-MAZ-ING! I just love all the embellies (why was I so concerned about keeping it flat?) and using the pearls for the tea cup is so wonderful.

And Max - well, he is just the biggest bundle of love isn't he. I miss the snuggles you get from the little ones. Enjoy every second because believe me, they grow up way to fast :)

Hugs and thank you again for such a wonderful amazing kitkat month.

Love you bunches ~
