KLM It's A Boy

I am back from vacation and trying to get my head back in the game. I need a vacation to recover from my vacation - know what I mean? We were at Disney World celebrating our wedding anniversary, my daughter's birthday, and Halloween at the Not So Scary Halloween Party. We had so much fun! I really recommend the Halloween party. And the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival is running at the same time. The food (and the wine) were fabulous. It was so much fun walking around trying various foods from the different countries. My daughter really loved the new Kim Possible adventure at Epcot. It really was fun for the whole family. You get sent on a 20 minute scavenger hunt around one of the "countries" in the World Showcase in Epcot. If you are going with kids, check it out.

Well, enough of that. I had better get to business. I created this card with one of the new digital sentiment stamps from KLM Designs which were released on 11-1-10. I love digital sentiments because you can resize them to fit your needs. In this case, I kept it nice and big so it could be the focal point of my card.



You can pick up this sentiment and the "It's a Girl" sentiment I used last week on the KLM Designs blog for just $1.00.

Thank you for stopping by today!

  • Images: It's A Boy digital stamp from KLM Designs

  • Inks: Distress Inks Tea Dye & Antique Linen
  • Tools: EK Success Edge punch, Stampin' Up Star punch
