Evidently I'm continuing in my quest

in channeling Ms Ashli - Purple mailbox  so just head on over there and check it out. It just happened. Really it did.

Connor has the cutest penguin face - and so reminds me of my Nick. So it appears when I finished this - shades of Ashli - there's washi tape behind the photo, which she just did - I used paint and she probably has somewhere as well, and she did some sort of border thing like my snowflakes - on another page she did, only she used way more.

The snowflakes - well that was a hoot.

If you look closely you'll notice. I die cut them and as I was putting on the glue because I thought what fun would GLITTER be on these, shook it all out, waiting for it to dry, I kept glancing at the the BIG jar and all of a sudden - A DOH! MOMENT - it wasn't glitter it was ULTRA EMBOSSING POWDER.
Sigh.
I kept glancing at the bottle but it just didn't compute until I of course had them glued down and was pondering the lack of glittering not being done. So I blasted it carefully with the heat gun and called it a day. Oh and penwork. Gasp*faint*thud..............

Another Ashli - who knew about layering tags. I want to know how she thinks ALL this stuff up.

I really do.

I did get to use my new $1 stamp and recollections tapes from Michaels.

So now I have a tag looking for a home.  I have this heritage photo calling my name - we'll see.......

A flash from the past going on here - that's meeee!! It just happen to shake out of the wayback box and it fit the page I was doing for the pattern paper challenge over at SNC.

6 months pregnant with my favorite eldest son - Nick and I have this deer in the headlights look. It was an adventurous time in my life for sure.

I know this'll surprise you - but I went in a different vein and used....Authentique.

The challenge was 3 florals, a diamond look, a solid and butterfly.
