I can tell I am beginning to feel. I can sit up without being dizzy, I’m walking without feeling like I’m on a rocking boat & I spent more time creating this past week. I still can’t hear out of my right ear but I have been told it should be better soon. Maybe I shouldn’t tell dear hubby when it’s better so if I want to tune him out I can just blame it on my hearing loss!!
I enjoy creating my memory books for my children & they love receiving these books that all they have to do is pop in the pictures and do a little journaling. This layout will be put in the book for my son, daughter-in-law and my granddaughter. This particular book will be given to them as a family on Samantha’s first birthday in June. It contains 1 page for each month, a page for each of her “first” holidays and then a few 2-page layouts. I went to 3 different stamp sets; Happy Watercolor (w-133188,c-133191), Perfect Pennants (w-133227,c-133230) & Polka-Dot Pieces (w-129705,c-129708) for the theme of this layout. I know there will be a picture or two of the three of them that they will want to put onto these pages. I will be doing a few grandparents & aunt & uncle pages too.
The colors of this layout will work with almost any outfits that they may be wearing in the pictures so I know we will find many that can go onto this layout. I wanted to put embellishments on the pages that would co-ordinate with the polka dot pattern from the Birthday Basics Designer Series Paper (130145) without getting too busy. Don’t you agree that the Polka-Dots Pieces stamp set is just right?
I used our Tiny Wave Stampin’ Trimmer
Rotary Cutting Blade (129409) for this detailed
edge of the strips. Using this blade made it quick to add this detail.
These 2 pages will be one of the two layouts that my scrapbook clubs will be creating this month. They will be able to choose from the Polka-Dot Pieces or the Blast Off stamp sets, everything else will remain the same.
