Baby onesies and matching cards

Do you remember THIS shirt that I made for Trysten shortly after he was born? Well, I've had a lot of fun making more - even a version for a girl! ETA: If you want to know how I created these, check out the link I posted in the first sentence - super easy, super cute! Here are my latest...
***
For a family in our ward who adopted a baby boy a few months ago - the mom made sure to show me when he wore it to church a couple weeks ago - he looked so cute! The card, bag, and envelope were all created with the same papers - how's that for coordinating! I LOVE how this tie turned out, I might just have to make one for Trysten, too!
I actually made up this card pattern - just grabbed my scraps and put them together - that's not something I usually do, so I was quite impressed with myself ;-) Sometimes I get too dependent on sketches and patterns and don't work on my own. The vellum phrase on the front came from a random pack of vellum sentiments.
The stamp set used on the bag is called Baby Impressions (retired).

Here is my girl version - using the Twitterpated paper pack I created a fun girly collar and buttons - or at least I hope it looks girly ;-) I had to play around with my idea/shape a lot - at first it looked too much like a bra - I hope it doesn't anymore! This was a nice quick gift for a friend who just had her baby last night!
Sorry I didn't get a better picture of the card - the clothes are paper pieced or colored in with markers and look super cute! The card pattern is from Wishes - Classic Closure. I used the Sweet Baby and Baby Steps stamp sets.
Here are two shirts for a friend who is due with a baby boy - she gets two shirts just because they are both so darn cute and I couldn't pick a favorite. This set uses the Sarsaparilla papers.
This card uses the Childhood stamp set and another pattern from Wishes - Medallion.
Here is one I made to just have on hand for a quick gift - I used the Everyday Celebration papers.
I obviously love this stamp from the Childhood set for baby cards - perfect! This card uses another Wishes pattern - Collage.
Thanks for looking!
