Family Is Forever!

Hey, everyone!!

Shut the front door! I made a scrapbook page!! Woohoo!! I am so excited to show it to you! Here is my first 12x12 scrapbook page for this year!

I was looking through MY MOST FAVORITE scrapbook magazine OF ALL TIME (Scrapbooks, Etc.) and was inspired by an ad for the newly released Bo Bunny Persuasion paper collection. There is a scrapbook page using those papers and I immediately thought of my new My Mind's Eye Sweet Dreams Holiday Avenue glittered paper pack! Then I started putting pieces together and the layout above is what I came up with!

Of course, I cannot ever just copy something exactly the way it is...I have to change it up and this layout was no exception! I punched a tag with my Sizzix machine and using my most favorite white gel pen (Signo) I added some doodle dots and wrote Kadesia and Javan's name. I put a faux rhinestone on the top of the tag and stamped "these are the ones my heart loves" from the Family Is Forever stamp set by The Angel Company in L'Amore Red palette hybrid ink. I used the same ink and another stamp from the same set on the cardstock base.

Picking up the white elements, I added the year the photo was taken with my cardstock stickers. I also created little white doodle dots under the word FOREVER. I stamped this sentiment from the same stamp set in Jardin Moss palette ink. The green on green gave it a watermark look to it.
If you will notice in the upper right hand corner of the photo layer, I placed 5 green faux rhinestone stickers. It was fun to create a little photo corner using some bling! It felt so good to make this layout! I want to do more but I will just have to wait! My list of things to do this week is growing longer and longer! Hope you'll stop by again to see what else I am creating!

Angel Hugs,
