Just call me Martha

So, here’s the deal (I haven’t said that in forever!…I’ve been hav­ing withdrawls)…a month or so ago Shana made a dia­per cake for her sis-in-law’s baby shower.  I had seen a few, but wasn’t entirely sure what they were (I actu­ally thought it was made up of baby wash clothes!).  After Shana’s post show­ing her work of art, I was ALL inspired.

It’s not like I have tons of baby show­ers to go to, but I just so hap­pened to know of a baby shower that I was going to be invited to at the end of Feb­ru­ary.  I got per­mis­sion to make it and was pre­pared to spend hours per­fect­ing it!

But as life would have it…I com­pletely for­got how close the end of Febuary can sneak up on people!

So the day before I found myself high­tail­ing it all over Hobby Lobby and Wal­mart look­ing for just the right “stuff”.  And here’s what I made!

Doesn’t it look great?!?!  I com­pletely shocked myself!  I’m not crafy.  My hus­band actu­ally does bet­ter than me at stuff like this.  But I think it turned out real classy (that is with a ‘c’-not a ‘k’ as most Ozark­ers spell and say it)! 

Word has it, the mommy-to-be was real pleased by it, but I wouldn’t know first hand because I haven’t heard from her since!  …ahem…hint, hint. (No, I don’t own a phone that I could pick up by myself.…)

Thanks, Shana for the GREAT idea!
