Stamp a Scene Challenge

This is for the Stamp a Scene Challenge at Lawnscaping this week.  I know there will be a lot of "Christmas in July" events/challenges coming up, but I don't look to be crafting very much in July, so I'm doing a little bit of mine now.
Sets used: Cozy Christmas, Plus One, Critters in the Snow (and I would have used Critters in the Forrest if I had it, cuz' this just really needs a Christmas tree too.) 

I haven't taken the time to get on this new computer to "learn" it yet, and so I didn't do any editing on the photo, you get it "as is".  

On to baby news.......
bless his little heart, he still doesn't have a name and may not ever the way his Mama & Daddy are going at it.  Honestly, I don't remember ever seeing 2 people so at odds on picking out a name.  He was going to have the initials J.C.H. like his daddy, but that idea is out the window, and ever time they seem to be getting close, it's back to square one.  So for now, he's just "Mimi's Little Man."  My daughter is stressing over this just a little, and it's really quite comical.  She can't put his name up in the nursery like she wants to and she can't order a couple of little outfits with his name and monograms on them that she has found, and these things need to be done NOW!  At least that's the way she is thinking.  She's 27 weeks so they still have a little time, even tho' she doesn't see it that way.  I'm starting to feel the joys of grand-parenting already.  It's so nice to be able to just sit back and listen (& laugh when they don't know it.)  Hey, all I've got to do is love and spoil him, they can figure out the rest.
Hubby, daughter & son in law, getting ready for our little "Christmas in July"
   
Now it's time to decorate... or it will be when He gets a name;)

  3. Okay first of all that is probably the CUTEST scene card I've ever seen. You have all the details so perfectly placed and thought out. I'm absolutely in LOVE with the card, right down to Charlie Brown's Christmas on the TV. AMAZING!!!!

    2nd of all the baby's nursery looks BEAUTIFUL. That crib is awesome, I love the bedding, the diapers are an absolute necessity and the light blue paint in the room is SO perfect! I can't wait to see what they finally decide on for a name! Hugs- Glora

  12. Hey Tami, I wanted to let you know that the first comment on this is from me. I have been having so much trouble with my blog, and I could not figure out what the problem was, and then my son said that he had to make a blog for his music class, on "House Bands" and if you look at the name that is on my comment, you will see that it was made by "House band" and then it all came together for me. Kids, Ugh karen♥

  13. Hi Tami, I love your card and love the fact that you put Charlie Brown on the tv. Super cute. Look at the story you'll have to tell your grandson about his name when his parents eventually pick it. :)
