Sugar Shoppe: Sweet Baby Blog Gift Idea

Hello! I hope you are having a sweet day! ;) Court from Court's Crafts here with a sweet baby block gift to give to someone or use yourself! Sugar Shoppe!!!! Love love this line. It has the popular minty-blue color, the fabulous peach color and some pink of course. It just screams sorbet! :)

As most of you know, I just had a baby and it is super popular to take "as they grow" pictures. Some people will take them with a sticker on a onesie that says "one month" or "two months". I like the idea but the sticker-ed onesie wasn't really my thing... So I came up with this!


I decided to make a side with days, weeks, months, and years so I could use them for a while and for Emmaline as well as Charlotte. :)


I dressed up the blocks with some stickers, but I didn't want to take the focus off the numbers


I also put the two flower doily tiles one the sides.


I love love love Doodlebug color coordination - this line works perfectly with several of the alpha colors, but I liked the pink for the pop. So if you have some bubblegum colored Doodlebug alphas in your stash - they will match perfectly! :)

There are actually four blocks to get all of the numbers represented and to do double digits.

This would make such a fabulous baby shower gift or if you want to just do years with older children you could photograph them holding the blocks in front of them! Too cute! I hope I have inspired you a little today! Have a beautiful and Sugar Shoppe filled day! :)
