Creations by AR - February New Release Hop

The February Release for Creations by AR is here, and the theme is Baby Love!
Welcome to my blog!  As most of you know, we are expecting our very first grandchild any day now, so when the amazing Adela gave us the new templates, I was beyond thrilled!  Without further ado,
here is what I created with the new releases!

First up is this precious little Rockin' Horse Card.
Isn't this just the sweetest thing? Overall measurements are about 4" by 4".



Next, is the Rockin' Cradle.  OMG, what a fun little creation this is!  It measures 3.25" wide, 3.25" tall, and 3.75" long.  The 'blanket' is a piece of paper towel, and the 'mattress' is something I created from a scrap of cardstock and a scoring board.  Had to make a matching rug, of course!  And the little pillow & bear is a digital image from Doodle Pantry.  Isn't it just a perfect finishing touch?


Now, you just have to see these darling Dress Up Baby Bag.  These worked up so quickly! I didn't have any wonderful pink cardstock, so I just took a small stamp, and some pink ink, and dabbed flowers all over the white piece.  The centers are colored yellow, but don't show up very well in the photo.

Measures 7" W x 9.5" H, 2.75"D

Measures 6.8" W x 9.5" H x 2.75" 
 Last, but not least, I used the Baby Love cut outs (included in the Dress Up Bag Templates), and created a couple of super quick cards.



Creations by AR templates come in SVG or PDF files.  As I don't (yet) own a cutting machine, I cut all of mine by hand.  This month, my teamie Sue, sent me the two Baby Loves, the tiny horse on the pink bag, and a few other teensy little items!  Thank you so much, Sue!  You rock!

This month, you can purchase templates individually, OR you can purchase the bundle, and get all three new templates for $12 - what a bargain (a savings of $3)!

Hope you've enjoyed these wonderful templates!
How can you win your choice of the three new templates?

My word, you were a very busy lady with all this crafty goodness & beauty. I am in love with the rocking horse. Bet you are saving this for the new little angel. The cradle, pillow & doily rug is just too precious for words. That was a lot of fussy cutting too, and it looks marvelous. Those baby bags were totally new to me, and awesomely cute. Loved that you made one for each gender. You are READY! TFS & Hugs - hope you are faring ok weather wise.

Roxann said...

WOW! Fabulous projects and I love them all! The recipient of these baby cards will be thrilled.
Hugz,
