Poster: Blooms in a Box

 She's Whut!?!

Oh, rumors fly fast, don't they now? Well, at least it's good news, no matter how shocking. But it is true...Blooms is expecting. Yes, I know. It's quite a shock, but I thought I could make these announcements to keep my mind free from the endless search of drumsticks, chips and salsa. You know how expectant mother's are.

See, it all started last year, and we were just thinking about it, and the more we thought about it, the more excited we became! So, I've been drudging into work every morning, sick as a dog, yet smiling to think these pains will not last forever. All the signs are there, not sleeping well at night, not comfy in my chair at work. Morning sickness, and how odd that it never really hits me til I get to my desk. Funny, eh?

Yes, I am naming my baby Liberty Belle. Isn't that a pretty name? I love the symbolism, because freedom is indeed beautiful! And I am indeed pregnant- with RETIREMENT! Yes! Only nine months to go girlfriends! Wooo-hooo! Fortunately, I do have a Midwife, Margaret (vintage stamper) who keeps a close eye on me at work. She is priceless. (and soon to be expecting her own retirement baby, shortly after me!)

So Kush, there ya have it. The story is out, and the leak was started by your own sweet hand! Oh, the stories in Jammer Town. No need to plan a baby shower, either. I have all I need, in Cody, Wyoming!

Hush now....Liberty is having some sweet dreams of Jonny and Audrey. Shh......


Thanks for looking!

LOL PAT!!! You are TOO FUNNY!!! Your card is beautiful and your baby Liberty is so precious! LOVE the embossed stars on the wonderful DP too! Gorgeous die cuts and lovely ribbon, this baby card is the sweetest ever (Especially with no pink or blue!) Congrats on your baby... Do you need any pickles? Maybe they make Jammies with pickles on them!!!

Ahh, so close, bet you can almost smell the F R E E D O M!!!!

Bless that baby "Liberty Belle" - love how she is all curled up and comfy, dreaming about the days to come in her paper pieced outfit - You always find such a unique way of putting the components of your cards together - love this BG with the stars and hearts - your retirement is finally upon you - yep - the light at the end of the tunnel is becoming brighter - and I could not be happier for you!!

LYMI!!!

LOL The cat is out of the bag, good thing as tongues was a waggin wondering. '. Now all the women folk in town can support you as this special event makes it full term. There are gonna be days you just wish the 9 months was over. But glory be the day Liberty Belle arrives, we all will be doing the happy dance - think of ALL that free time to stamp and rock young un's. Hugs girlfriend. BTW it is hard to keep a secret in Jammer Town :). P.S. like those jammer ties you used!!

Yahoo!! Liberty Belle is on her way. How wonderful is that gonna be! I'm so glad you are going to be free. Free to luv up those babies and free to stamp. Now every once in a while you will need to get outta dem jammers.

This card is darling. Love the bg and the sweet lil paper pieced clothes.
