Just a quick, fun project for a baby we are STILL awaiting for! I am overcompensating for the fact that I don't get to be there when he is born by sending his mommy lots of baby crafts (like 8 hats I made on the Knifty Knitter!)






I had cute sayings picked out to add with each animal, but I forgot how teeny babies are- I got the 0-3M size Onesies and they were unbelievably tiny, no way I could handle cutting out letters that small!


The lion is my favorite



I love the silver elephant too- I was really impressed with metallic fabric paint, it was just the 99 cent stuff at JoAnn's (SoSoft), and I'm not really much for sparkles, but I love, love this paint, I'll probably have to make myself something with it!



I didn't like how this one turned out- and then I went and added the little dots for the nostrils (post-photo) and just ruined it, I'm going to try again when I get more Onesies though.



This buffalo is important- I met my dear friend while attending the University of Colorado, and now she lives in Buffalo, NY- so this is going to be one Buffalo Baby! The paint was plain brown, but I brushed some gold over it to give it some sparkle, it just looked too dull with the others with out it, have I mentioned how much I loved the paint? :P



All made with the famous "iron on freezer paper" method (my first attempt even!)
