Happy Birthday!

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a wonderful Saturday morning. This is a layout of my youngest daughters 1st birthday. Isn't she the cutest little darling. lol. This is one of the pages that I am including in my mom's album for her birthday. She is holding my dd and they both look so happy:). It is one of my favorite pics of them together.

I used one of my new cuttlebug folders on this swiss dots and I sort of messed up not aligning the folder up to make one continuous emossed image and ended up with a strip in between the dots, since my paper was longer than the folder. To fix the problem, I just addes some ribbon, flowers and bling. TA DA...problem solved hehe. I also addes some bling to the Smile and used shiny paper for it , just to give it a little extra something. I am going to add a journaling tag a little later, before I give it to her.

Thanks for stopping by, hope you like it as much as I do.

Another 8x8 layout

 Hello everyone. I hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday:) It is dreary here, but it isn't cold...so I am not going to complain. I am soooo over the cold weather.
   For today I have another 8x8 layout to share. I am making my mom an album filled with pictures of her and all of the grandkids as part of her birthday present. Which means I will be sharing quite a few 8x8 layouts with you this week and next week.

   My niece is the little baby and the 5 year old "hamming it up" for the camera is my oldest daughter.
I had some paper from  Nana's nursery stack that had the saying "onesies and blankets and diapers, oh my" and I thought it would be fitting on this page with mom changing Lauren's diaper. The whole page had that on it , but I thought that just the scallop on the top would look good. So I cut it out with the curve of the clothes line.
    The base paper had some flowers with leaves and stems scrolled around on it. I used some silk flowers in place of the printed ones and used glossy accents to outline the stems. Not really sure if you can see that well or not. It is my first time using the glossy accents.
   Thanks for stopping by

"Double take"

Hello all my bloggy friends, For today's post I have an 8x8 layout to share with you. This is my first time doing one. I usually use the 12x12 , but thought I would give this a go. If you think you have seen this before on here you are right (well sort of lol) When I made my card with the adorable little squirrel from create a critter...I made one too small and decided I wanted it a little bigger. I kept this one. No reason throwing away a perfectly good cut because it was too small. :P

This is my mom changing my neice's diaper and my oldest daughter getting in on the pic. I covered my niece's little bottom, didn't want her mooning everyone hehe.

Thanks for stopping by
