Another stamp inspired punch art project - HERE is the stamp set that I saw - from Art Impressions - "Memory Laps". I took it down to one girl (no lap) in a chair instead of two on a sofa...
Could be used for a pregnancy congrats card and certainly on a scrapbook page.
Prego Woman:
Head - 1.25 circle
Hair - 1.75 circle near a 1.25 circle hole - sponge edges
Bangs - Part of the 1.25 circle that you punched to create the hair hole - sponge to distinguish from base hair and cut a notch.
Eyes - standard hole punch in white and black - add highlight with white gel pen
Nose - standard hole punch - sponge top with pink ink
Shirt - wide oval for belly - full heart upside down for chest - tips of word window for sleeves - all sponged
Arms - narrow heart to heart next to hole of the same
Legs - narrow scraps
Ankles and feet - Full heart next to hole of same - color in black shoes with sharpie
Chair:
2.5 inch circle for chair back -outline in black
1 inch x 3 inch strip for chair seat - outline in black and draw dividing line
medium oval for chair arms - outline in black and draw center oval
black scrap chair legs
I know a mother of twins about to hatch - I think I'll finish this up for her - probably been awhile since she has "done" a lap - and very soon her lap will be FULL!

Oh I love it....will make a great card for my SIL who is expecting....
welcome back and thanks
Sara
I am so glad you are creating again and the timing for this inspiration is perfect. Both my daughter-in-law and her sister are expecting, within 3 weeks of each other. This will be a wonderful encouragement card with a sentiment like "It won't be long now before you get your lap back" or something like that.
Thanks for sharing.
Glad you're back! Sure missed your fun creations and life commentary :)

OMG! That is hilarious! I love her!
So glad you're back, you always put a smile on my face.

Love this! Can't wait to try it, but I would like to know your favorite flesh-tone paper. Alene
Alene, I STILL have a stash of blush blossom paper - retired from Stampin' Up! It lasts a long time when you only use a little for each character. The in color Blushing Bride will work (see that backside girl doing the tango) But I think it goes away in June. We will have to see if they come up with a replacement for flesh or if you have to go to a competitor.
I am so glad you are back. I have continued to check your blog daily--awaiting your return.
Hello!
It is such fun to see you posting again! Love the pregnant woman and I love the couch! My oldest grandchild is to have a baby any day now - my third great grandchild - and I am going to make and send her this card! Wishing you a happy day!
Hugs,
Barbara Diane
Looks like you haven't missed a beat to me!! Love this.
I was so happy to see a new post today. Then I kept scrolling down and saw that I had missed three other post. SO HAPPY that you are back. Sue G
