We R Memory Keepers Baby Mine- Facebook Guest Designer

I was so honored when We R Memory Keepers asked that I be their Guest Designer for Facebook this month. I was asked to make some party favors using the new Baby Mine Collection and embellishments, I sure hope you enjoy what I came up with.
I first thought I need a Baby Shower invitation so I cut a Sweetie Pie Onsie using my Cameo. I added some tulle that I gathered together to form a fun skirt for the front of my Onsie.
I added a piece of the Baby Girl border of the Sugar and Spice to form a waistband on top of the tulle; some bows, pearl gemstones and an Epiphany Charm to the waist that says "You're Invited". Inside I will add the details to the baby shower. OH and I am going to save the invitation so I will be able to add it to a layout of my grand-daughter.
One of my favors was made from a 3 x 10 piece of paper that I scored at the 4 and 6 inch marks to make the bottom of the bag. I stapled the top of the paper once I placed my M&M's into a bag.
I added a folded piece of Girly Girl paper that I matted with some brown card stock to make a header for my bag. I fussy cut the momma and baby elephant and glued it to the front of the header.
I used a ribbon punch and punched holes on both sides of the bag header and added my ribbon to the top of the bag and tied a Epiphany Square charm to the the ribbon. I placed a border from the Sugar & Spice paper to the bottom of my bag along with a flower that I fussy cut and added them to the front of the bag.
My second party favor was a small jar of M&M's. I wrapped the jar with some of the Girly Girl and Rock A Bye paper but do you see the momma kangaroo and baby that is behind the border, I fussy cut it out and placed it behind so it would seem to be peeking from behind. I stapled some sheer pink ribbon to a border from the Sugar and Spice paper that I had distressed using the Tim Holtz distresser.
I just love the Epiphany charms and Try the updated Blogger interfacebubbles so I wrapped some pink twine around the covered lid rim and added one of the charms to the jar. On the top of the jar I also placed a fun Printed Fabric Button to the top of the jar.
I hope you will try some of these fun party favors and invitation for your next shower. Also, if you don't have a Cameo for the Onsie you can find a lot of free Onsie patterns by just going to your search engine.
