So, I have thoroughly enjoyed creating decorations for my grandsons' baby showers - all 4 of them! But now we have added a granddaughter to our family and I am thrilled to make some girly decorations!!! Today it's my turn to share over at  SHE'S A SASSY LADY  so I just had to share my excitement there too! Be sure to check out Sheila's blog for awesome, daily inspiration!!  I decided to make a big centerpiece in a basket.

This is an awesome cartridge and if you don't already have a CM consultant, feel free to stop by my website ------> HERE   to order this or any of our other amazing cartridges!
