After hearing that one of my team members had her baby on Nov 14th, and my other downline was in labor as of yesterday, I decided to make them congratulations cards. Both of these ladies were expecting boys, so I made two identical Riley the Moose cards as seen below.
Riley stamps can be found at Hannah Stamps and the "happy birthday" stamps are from this little cupcake set I picked up here. I also used my copic markers to color the images. The paper is all CTMH - Indian Corn Blue, Goldrush and Autumn Terracotta CS, and patterned paper from the Free Spirit Kit. I used my nestabilities and cuttlebug to cut the scallops and emboss, respectively.
The other project I tacked today was my annual "Sammie" book. Normally these are hand scrapped, but time and money are tight this year, so I made the pages digitally using the Flea Market "Piece of Cake Album" from the Shabby Shoppe (courtesey of my friend Christine who gave me a gift cert. for my birthday!). I was able to get 19 of 20 pages done with the kit today. Here is a sample page. I can't show off the whole thing, as many of the people receiving this album read my blog, and I'd like it to be somewhat of a surprise.
The only page left is for Sammie's Santa picture. We tried to get it done this evening, but THAT is a saga I don't care to get into tonight. All I can say is that Santa's "helpers" should try and be more HELPFUL and not so snarky.

Sorry to hear about those snarky Santas helpers. Would have been nice to have that pic taken when you were ready to take it.

The scrapbook page and the picture on the page are gorgeous! WOW!!!
Nona - These are beautiful, as usual! Just also wanted to let you know the link to Hannah Stamps is incorrect, it's actually Hannastamps.com. I did a search since I was determined to find those cute stamps!
