But today I thought I’d stick with the baby scrapbook pages
of Finn. My daughter was almost 37 when he was born and I think they had pretty
much given up on have a family. She waited until my birthday to tell me she was
pregnant and it was the best birthday present ever. He did not have an easy
birth (hence the funny quote bubble on the page I posted yesterday) but he was
healthy so that’s all that mattered.
I love how first time parents just can’t stop staring at the
little miracle they created. Glad I captured that special moment for them on
film. These two papers came in a set so I just did the laying of extra paper,
sewing along the edges of some before adding the photos. Blue and yellow seem
to be the theme and they both had yellow stars on them so I went with that and
cut out more stars from cardstock, coloured them, inked the edges and added
them with dimensional glue dots for interest. A couple of the frames came with
the kit and I made the rest. The baby bottles were hand stamped on cardstock,
coloured and cut out an added with more dimensional glue dots. I also had a
package of rub-ons so I used those as well as stickers. By placing the yellow
frames on opposite corners of the two pages plus the placement of the yellow
stars your eye automatically follows the yellow path around both pages – at least
I hope it does. It did when I looked at it! Oh yeah, the monkey hat? His father’s
sister loves monkeys and is passing the passion and she felt it was never to
early to start!
Here are the two pages by themselves.
Tomorrow I’m back with a new card technique but that’s all
for today.
Cheers
Violet
