The second page not completed at the crop

Yes, yes I have a theme going on and actually

I'm really quite pleased - I got my

album done which was my goal and this gave

me a challenge at home. 

I kept to these papers and added a bit more to it.

It needed some ummphh!

And red will give it that punch needed especially off the teal.

One of my favorite combinations.

And the layers look terrific.

 I broke out the sewing machine - which is why I'm glad I waited.

Loved doing the circle with it - 

And then loaded up some Paper Issues and Studio Calico embellies

on the circle. Kept it simple love how it turned out.

And I have dangly thread.

Don't that make you swoon.

 Love love love this photo.

It just says it all.

A mother and son.

Sweet.

Echo Park, Studio Calico, Basic Grey, Paper Issues Swag Bag. 

Calgon take me away...

You just don't see that commercial on anymore.
Is it even sold?

I'm a shower kinda gal so I don't know.

I was getting tired of 8x8 squares so I decided

to go round. I even broke out my sewing machine with

a funky edging. It took a few times around because the thread

got tangled up a few times.

I left it that way.

I then picked out papers and just started laying it on.

And then I found the die cut piece just laying about.

And it seemed to work.

Then I had to find the perfect photo for the page.

It called for a photo that was not quite swanky

and not quite tooo laid back.

I also stamped on the photo with my new Studio Calico stamp.

I know. I can be quite the rebel unexpectedly.

There's some Bo Bunny going on with Basic Grey, KI memories,

Little Yellow Bicycle cork alphas, Tim Holtz word strips, prima and

I got to use my new butterfly anywhere punch by Martha Stewart.

Wooo Hooo!!!
