Tomorrow, I am going to a baby shower for one of my good friends, she is due in about a month! I can't wait to meet her little boy. I decided to make him this little flannel blanket. It's so soft!
And here is the coordinating card. I got my copy of Go-To Sketches in the mail this week and this is one of my favorite sketches from the magazine...although I have tabbed about 3/4 of them!
Sorry for the bad lighting, but it's too windy to take pictures outside today!
And here is the basement! The first coat of tape is on the drywall so it should be ready for paint by the end of next week - I just have to pick a color! Then we will lay some tile by the walk out, trim and have the carpet installed. Can't wait!
Thanks for stopping by!

How cute is that Blanket .......and how much do you love the sketch book ....... good color combos. I am only going to say Benjamin Moore paint ...... they have the best paint in the whole world and since our walls are plaster and 100 years old I have first hand experience. I did all my colors for this house on their website ..... they have some really great shades!!! What color are you thinking ??
I'll look into that Sue Ann - thanks for the tip. I'm not totally sure on what color yet, I know that I when I see it, I will know. That's how I picked all the other colors for our house 2 years ago and I still love them. The only thing I do know is that is has to coordinate with the dark brown of the "bricks" you can see in the picture. It's actually poured concrete that was sandblasted and stained.
such a great card.. isn't that idea book just fab?? I love it too!
I love that blanket! The card is cute, too! BTW, I'm so jealous you're going to have a dedicated craft space.
Lovely card. And I love the blanket.
So cute Anika! I love the colors, so fresh and fun! That blanket is so cute too!
This is just too cute. I can't wait to get my copy of Go To Sketches! Your remodeling looks like it is coming along. How exciting that must be!
The blanket and card are SO cute! I know the mom to be will LOVE it!
Anika, the blanket is adorable and the card is too! It's so colorful and cheery. I love that ribbon.
Both super cute projects! I love that blanket and the card is just perfect! TFS!
Love your blanket and your card!! Great gift!
Your friend is going to love her gift and that cute card. Congrats on your remodel. Hope to see pics of your craft area when you are done.
Cute blankie and card. I need to get that magazine. I hope your craft space is done soon. It is going to be wonderful to have your "craft home" again.
Super cute blanket and card! Great gift!
Aww, I love the blanket you made Anika. It's adorable, and looks so soft. The LO of your card is fun! And I like that it is so colorful and not "blue" for a boy. Really happy card.
Good luck choosing colors for the walls in the basement. I'll bet you can't wait to have a permanent space for your crafting supplies again.
I used to LOVE reading the Mr.Little and Ms. Little books! What a cute blankie! Your card is super cute too!
That blanket is adorable. Looks so soft and snuggly! :) Your card is super cute too!
The blanket is adorable. My son has a "Mr. Mischief" shirt and it totally fits his personality. Don't you just love that Papercrafts mag? So many great ideas!!
That blanket is just adorable, and I love how the card matches. Have fun choosing paint colors...I think that's the most agonizing decision...so many beautiful colors, but only one can be 'the one.'
Oh your friend will just love that blanket! I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up as "blanky". to be carried around for years to come!
