{Rebecca} Catered Crop : Knot Now

Another few weeks have flown by and I honestly can't tell you if I'm thrilled, or disappointing the Sofia seems to be growing just as quickly as time keeps passing. I'm pretty sure that at this rate she will be walking by the time she's 9 months old as she has already mastered sleeping through the night, smiling, holding her head up, and just generally falling into a routine and she's not even 6 weeks old. However, I'm not going to complain about any of these things, even though it means she's quickly leaving the newborn stage behind, though it does mean she's already not the itty bitty baby she once was.

Oh the hardships of life :)

Of course, with the passage of time that means its time for for another Catered Crop challenge! I had a lot of fun with this one (I always do!) : Know Now.

{Rebecca} Catered Crop : In the Pink

The blog has been a little quite as of late, but for a very good reason. With a new baby girl to love, I've certainly spent a lot less time crafting and more time adjusting to our wonderful (albiet busy!) new life. I'm trying to get a little more consistent with some of my DT commitments especially, but its really hard when there's this cutey pie distracting me!

I did manage to create a card for this weeks Catered Crop Challenge : In the Pink, even with Miss Adorable looking on. When it comes to crafting, I'm not really a pink person, but with the fantastic kit that our sponsor, Lilly Belle's Paperie, it wasn't hard to create something for this challenge.

Shopping at Lilly Belle's Paperie and Textiles is like shopping in a up-town boutique, but with low-down prices. Laura Evangeline has curated some fabulous hard-to-find papers, textiles and embellishments in her Etsy shop and she's organized them all beautifully by color.  So, yes, you can pick up all the pink you need for our challenge right here. "Like" her on Facebook for updates and specials too.

One randomly chosen player will win a $25.00 gift certificate. And, everyone is a winner for this challenge.

Laura is offering you all a 15% discount in her shop, valid only until our challenge ends, September 15!

Head over to Catered Crop for all the details for this challenge and for more terrific inspiration from the rest of the design team!
