Farm Fresh Quilt - October Afternoon fabric!

The other quilt is done and on it's way to baby Lyla!  This one was made with Farm Fresh by Moda Fabrics (for October Afternoon!)  My new favourite thing about coordinating paper and fabric lines: I can make a matching tag!  

Thanks for stopping by! 

My latest project...

My husband and I are expecting our first baby this fall!

I'm now 14 weeks along, but I've been waiting to share this layout for quite a while now.  This picture is from our first ultrasound on March 1st, 2011.  Baby was tiny, only 4mm long, with a little tiny flicker of a heartbeat.  It was amazing.

The journalling reads, "The first time we saw you on an ultrasound was an amazing experience; your heart was beating like crazy and it was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen."  

Papers, journalling card from October Afternoon (Daydream collection.)  Ribbon, button, and twine from Stampin' Up.  Glimmer mist used to distress papers.  Green letters from an unknown source (they've been in my stash forever!) 

October Afternoon - Schoolhouse, Modern Homemaker, and Campfire

I waited SO long for the new October Afternoon lines to arrive at my LSS.  They were debuted last summer and finally came into stock just before Christmas!  I've had a lot of fun with these three beautiful lines and here are a few of my favourites:

From the Schoolhouse line:

From the Modern Homemaker line: 

From the Campfire line: 

Inspired by... Sketch #1

I saw this sketch a while ago on http://www.iheart2stamp.com and fell in love with it. It's got a nice modern style and I love layering paper.

I created a few cards using this sketch as inspiration.  I thought it was time I put a dent in my stash of October Afternoon paper- OA is one of my favourite companies and I'm always hesitant to cut into it!

This first card is from the Farm Fresh line.

These next two were made with the Night Light collection. I love this line; I don't have kids (and truth be told, don't really like kids...) but the papers intended for little boys just slay me. They're so adorable!

I also made cards with the Road Map collection and the Weathervane collection. I think Weathervane is still my favourite October Afternoon line ever.

The kraft cardstock and the inks (Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip, Night of Navy) are from Stampin' Up. All other supplies (patterned paper, wild cards, rub-ons) are from October Afternoon.

If you create anything from this sketch, I'd love to see it- leave a link in the comments!

Cheers,

Shannon
