TN page - Chat with CaraLYNN

My niece and I got connected when she

appeared on messenger for kids.

And we had a wonderful chat, in fact, so awesome

it had to be documented.

Below is a photo of said beautiful neice

she sent to me in the chat so I could make sure it was 

really her.

O and if you're wondering about the spelling out

of the name. WELL...

she does have my name 😍

 I screen shot the chat because I needed to.

Shrunk them down and printed them by 3's

on 4x6 photo paper.

(I didn't think to use regular paper)

It's on that brad - from waybackintheday.

and then popped on some foam backing for easy reading.

 And that hip kit club bunny was to adorable

not to use.

Below are the screen shots of the actual conversation

maybe not all in order but hey.

Hip Kit Club, Studio Calico, watercolors.

Mini Wedding Album

Of course it's the one on the beach and of course

I'm using beachy stuff.

I totally had an ah-ha moment when I first started.

I glued paper to the front page, didn't like it

and ripped it off.

AND THEN - it became a shabby chic moment.
Since it was a gift, I added 

ALL MY FAVORITE PICTURES.

 Mostly, because I could of course, and because

there were a finite number of pages 

(or it gets cumbersome and ugly) 

I wanted to get everyone in and tell a story.

 I'm not going to mention here that one of the 

pages got flipped and was now out of order so I'm

rolling with I planned it that way 😏

 Those really are shells and I'm worried about

their shelf life, but paper ones just didn't look the same.

 I did send everyone all my pix so they can pick and choose

their favs and are so not stuck with mine.

Of course the back needed just a little something.

This was a mix of paint, papers (I can't ID - but either

Studio Calico or Pink Fresh or Basic Grey

it's all I have in my stash and assorted stamps, 

Tim Holtz words and seashells, netting and sea glass from M's.

The bride and groom loved it.

Whew.
