Modern Baby Girl

 

I’ve been invited to a baby shower! A baby shower for a couple of young modern parents-to-be.  I knew I wanted to create some gifts that were fun and edge-y, hip, happening, cool, etc.  {what ever the “word” is today)

 

{Name Blocks}

Blocks that spell out the baby’s name in hot pink vinyl on black and white scrapbook paper! I’d say that’s modern.   Click here to see a tutorial on how to make these scrapbook paper Mod-Podge blocks.  I simply added hot pink ribbon and a few rhinestones.

To package them ~ cut a piece of foam board and tie with ribbon.  The fun little circles were all cut on the Cricut Expression. 

{Personalized Blanket}

I took a store bought blanket and customized it with the Cricut Machine!  Yes, the Cricut cuts fabric too!!!!! How cool is that? 

A little zebra fabric, cute little pre-made flowers, zebra ribbon, and a little bit of sewing turns a store bought blanket into a hip modern baby blanket.

***Please do not email me  on the danger of choking with babies and small objects.

I thought long and hard before adding the little flowers.   Rest-a-sure each one is sewn on very very well.

 

A little detail.  I painted a baby safety pin with black poke-a-dots. and used it to keep the blanket rolled up.
