a baby girl Baby Shower

IMG_4579

Two weeks ago, I was back home in New York and I attended my long time friend, Danielle's, baby shower. To give her something to open at gift time, I decided to frame various size prints from the 'girl' themed me & my BIG ideas DIY Gallery Art Pad.

00 DIY Gallery Art Pad

In total, I framed six prints from the GIRL Gallery Pad, and one 3x4 POCKET PAGES™ card from this pack.

All the frames were bought at A.C. Moore except the gold frame, which I think fits nicely with the white ones, and is a cute unexpected detail.

Here Danielle is at her shower, taking out the biggest frame from the gift bag:

If you knew my friend Danielle, you'd know that that print was the favorite & most true of the bunch among the shower: "Little girl, BIG personality."  Here are some more shots from the shower:

Next to a game guessing the baby's arrival date, she placed this print of one
of the photos from this photoshoot I had with her & Manny back in July.

Finally, she had guests fill out a "Wishes For Baby" card. Above is how I filled mine out. ;)

I cannot wait for this kid. Can you tell?
