Looking back

One day while looking through old photos on my computer I came across this sweet picture of my youngest daughter and my father-in-law.

Now, typically this might not seem like  much but it is a picture I hadn't seen in a long time, and  one that caught me off-guard since he passed away almost a year ago. It will be a year on the 21st of this month.

I wanted to preserve this special memory and knew that the flowers from the Pink Paislee paper in my Noel Mignon kit for this month would do it the justice it deserved.

Since our project assignment for this week was to create with layers I set out to do just that and this is the layout that I ended up with:

Here are some close-ups of my page: 

You can read more about how I created bits of this project by visiting the Noel Mignon blog. 

Have a wonderful day.

happy colors and my sweet girls

Hello!

It's been a whirlwind of activity around here lately and while I've been scrapping some I hadn't gotten to post anything here.

I do have a new page that I put together just for fun using the Simple Stories Carpe Diem collection. I really love the bright, happy colors in this collection and the sweet icons like the cute little cat.

I used the SN@P! Pack for a lot of the embellishments on this page, including the cut out kitty and the colorful hearts. The "hello" is from the Love & Adore collection. I like the black and white photo paired with the bold hues of Carpe Diem. 

I did  use some miscellaneous washi tapes (love the gold with the bright colors!) but the rest is from Simple Stories. 

Thanks for stopping by!
