This is it everybody—it’s September! Maybe you’re excited for September because you are looking forward to more temperate weather, watching football, or you’re just stoked to have the kids back in school. Well, September has me excited for a different reason: it’s the month our baby girl is going to be born! To celebrate, I’ve made a cute little bunting banner for her, along with some die cut teddy bears and rubber ducks that I’m excited to share with all of you!
It was just over five months ago that I “spilled the beans” to all of you about my pregnancy. Since then, it’s been an exhausting journey, but well worth it! We found out that I’m not going to be the only girl in the house anymore (yay for hair bows and tutus), and baby girl’s big brothers couldn’t be more excited to meet her!
And, as you probably noticed, we picked out a name as well: Cressida!
I thought it would be fun to make a few little decorations to welcome baby Cressida into our home, so that’s where the idea for these die cut teddy bears and rubber ducks came in. And, since I’m getting a girl this time, I just had to add some pink hair bows and balloons in there. Of course, if you’re welcoming a little boy, you could easily use the hair bow as bowties and make the balloons blue.
I love how this bunting turned out! And these cuddly little cut files would be perfect for baby shower decorations, cards, or scrapbook pages as well.
I use Adobe Illustrator for all of my designs, and a Cricut Maker to bring my creations to life. For tips on creating fun paper cuts like this one, see the FAQ section on my website. Also, be sure to check out the other baby-related freebies available on my blog!
Enjoy putting these die cut teddy bears and rubber ducks to good use! And wish me luck in the coming weeks!
