First is a two page layout, of trying to get a good photo with the kids. Papers and embellies are Crate and October afternoon, canvas button is CTMH. I used my airbrush to colour the thickers...they look...umm...oh well!
some fun colours and papers, and I micked some of the flowers in the paper. Middle flower is some retired SU ribbon, and the top and bottom flowers are PTI beautiful blooms dies with the rounded part cut off
Second page is the amount of photos it took to get a decent shot !! No embelishment here as the photos make it quite busy...
last a single page spread of my son...and the damage a bowl of cherries can do. The two colour scheme is a bit..plain...but this was my very first attempt and I already see some growth from this to my double page layout..so happy with that !! Papers are Bazzil and Cosmo cricket.
Thanks for staying it out on this longer than usual post. And letting me show off my kiddos a bit too!!
Super cute, and way WAYYYY better than my first pages, way back when! LOL! :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a great job for your first layouts and like Deb, WAY better than anything I was doing 25 + hrs ago :). Or even 15 hrs ago. I love the out takes page- such a cute idea!
ReplyDeleteHa- gotta love auto correct. Yrs became hrs. Sorry!
ReplyDeleteThe out takes are really precious. Sometimes it's those pictures that will mean so much when you look back and remember all the effort it took to get the 'perfect shot'. Love your layout.
ReplyDeleteThese are great, Rose! I love the photos you took-- they make me think of my boys 7 years ago....
ReplyDeleteYou did a GREAT job...much better than my first pages... pics are sooooo good
