Oh Baby, Baby, Baby!

Wow, this has been the week for baby news! First, I found out my close friends, Michele and Larry, are expecting their first child! Then I found out Rodel's cousin, Anna and her husband Mike, just had their first child, a girl, last weekend, and his other cousin, Joe (who is Anna's brother) and his wife Giao, had their third child, a boy, earlier in the month! It's a baby explosion! Of course, I have to make cards to congratulate them all!


This is the card I made for Michele and Larry. Since we won't know what they're having for a few months (she's not due until September), I made it gender-neutral and used Barely Banana. The inside says, "Congratulations on the upcoming addition to your family!"


This is the card for Anna and Mike. Since they had a girl, I used Pretty in Pink for this one. The inside says, "Congratulations on the birth of your beautiful baby! We can't wait to meet her!"


And finally, here is the card for Joe and Giao. I used Bashful Blue for this one since they had a boy. The inside is the same as what is in Anna's card, except it says, "We can't wait to meet him!"

For all three cards, I used the following supplies, all from Stampin' Up! of course =)
