Oh Baby, We're Halfway There

photo by Dana Colwell Yes, it's true - time is flying by quickly. We found out the sex of the baby a few weeks ago but thought we would share it here since so many of you have asked. A couple hours after finding out the news, I came home and got excited about documenting it for Project Life, so I whipped up a journaling card. I used part of a Project Life kit by Studio Calico and some Tim Holtz Distress Paint as the base.

I adhered some Freckled Fawn washi tape along with a journaling card from Elle's Studio. And topped it off with these Thickers. The permanent marker is from this amazing BIC Mark-It set (the colors are delightful).

We're delighted about the news that he's healthy, and that we get to call him a "he"! Is it wrong for wanting to put the ultrasound photo with the little arrow pointing to the you-know-what right next to this card? I've had Bon Jovi's song, Livin' On A Prayer stuck in my head the entire time I have been composing this post. But the words ring true: Oh Baby, we're halfway there.... WHOA-OH!
