2 days in a row.....

Welcome Back! yesiree bob I am posting for the second day in a row!!! Thank you Willows!!!! I even managed to squeeze in cutting everyone's hair today(well not mine) and then a trip to the pool!!! Go Me! And seriously I really outdid myself today because I also taught one of the boys how to tie shoes!!!! *high fives all around*
A few more layouts I recently finished. This LO titled eggs - is super traditional for me! I'm usually not so graphically neat! I am also, not one to really always stay in the same style - I go with what I am feeling atm...and that day apparently it was neat and clean!! I'm pretty sure I used a 08 Studio Calico kit and some stash!
Now here I am back to a style that is really comfy ~ patterns and layers! Yep that's what I love! Adding in texture is the fun part! The paper I used to mat the photo ~ a nice shiny slick sheet of Hambly - easy to manipulate and tear and give the photo a little pop! Cause sometimes I don't like to see straight edges...don't be hating me though! That little heart is a piece of Tim Holtz grungeboard that I sprayed with Gold glimmer mist and then inked brown to bring out the raised dots on the grungeboard! I also used a Studio Calico kit on this one too!

thanks for looking!!

Both your Los are gorgeous but the 2nd one really stole my heart. As a mom of all boys I sometimes feel like I don't get to do as many cute techniques but this LO proved me wrong and then some.

You have mad skills - awesome scrapping!

Busy lady. Wanna come up north and teach my boy how to tie his shoes too? We're still working on which shoe goes on which foot.
