Cosmo Cricket {Garden Variety}
My new nephew, Cooper was the inspiration for my “Sweet Pea” Cosmo Cricket Layout.
I love the “Garden Variety” Line, it’s just perfect for a new baby…and…well, a garden.
I had fun sewing on this layout (around the frame and to gather the lace at the bottom).
Is it bad to put lace on a little boy layout?
I guess the “boy” rules go out the window because I think the lace shall stay.
Here’s a shot of the entire layout:
We’re headed off to California tomorrow! I’m so excited to see these little cuties:
My sweet nieces, Miss Kayla and Miss Addie.

Stopped by earlier today but didn’t leave a comment. Guess I thought you’d be packing for your trip or something. Fab layout and of course you can use lace on a boys LO. That is who YOU are after all and it should reflect your personality. And he’s a wee baby .. so it works for me. Have fun on your trip, be safe and enjoy the time away. BTW … great job on the sewing!

You know I LOVE your reversal of sneaks first and then the full layout. I read it in Googlreader and it was like a story book, one image and then next. And since I didn’t realize you are showing the whole thing, I thought you were only posting sneaks so I looked at everything and thought everything lovely and then voila the whole thing. That’s a new approach Christie, very very clever, I’m stealing it! lol.

Thank you so much for the sweet comment! It came at the perfect time. The job didn’t work out and I was really sad. But you brought a smile to my face. You are just the friend I need in my life right now. I am so grateful for you and hope you know how much your friendship means to me! I would be honored to be featured in a layout! I love this one! I can’t wait to see Cooper in real life. Have a safe trip! I can’t wait to hear all about it!

I think it’s a perfectly masculine LO! Even with the lace! Very cute with the sweet pea theme!

Cooper, Kayla and Addie are the sweetest peas around! Your layout is adorable, and don’t worry about lace for a new born baby boy. It’s harmless til he’s at least 6 months old.
