Baby Shower Gift - Framed Traditional Layout

I had the pleasure of creating a Baby Shower Gift for my cousin to give to her friends who are expecting a sweet little girl!  The name is still a secret, so I had to theme the layout without putting the baby's name (which I generally like to do as it really personalizes the gift).  I only had one restriction...not to use tooooo much pink :)  The family chose purple and green as their nursery theme, so I created my design around those colors as much as I could.

I think it turned out beautifully!

The Full Layout

The Details

Once the layout was created, my cousin chose to hang it on a Creative Memories Everyday Display in White.  Though the Display she used has since been retired, the Creative Memories company luckily still has a different styled version of the Display available for purchase.  What's great about the Everyday Display is that it's magnetic, which allows you to switch out your layouts, pictures, etc. easily and as often as you like!

Here's a photo of the layout shown in the Everyday Display!

I love the sweet garden-charm of the layout, and hopefully the mother-to-be will love it as well!
