Okay, this next layout isn't Christmas, but it FINALLY happened the day after Christmas. We had planned on letting Paige get her ears pierced on her sixth birthday as she had been asking for them to be done. So, we drove to our friendly local Walmart, and took her in. I'll spare you the gory details, so I'll just say it was a NO GO at that time. Fast forward nearly two years later, and at only one month shy of eight years old, Paige finally felt ready for this life changing event. It really did change my life--I still have the scars from holding her while they did the piercing. (kidding!).
Not to be outdone, Valentine's Day wants its share of the holiday glory. I used a line I bought last year, and some close-ups I'd saved of the girls to make these two layouts. The Little Yellow Bicycle 10 Things I Love About You pockets were fun to use!
Craving just a little bit of sunshine and summer on this April 17th day when it snowed (yes, I am not kidding this time!) and accumulated on the ground, I have a picture of the girls from last summer. I used Echo Park's "A Walk in the Park" line and my trusty sewing machine. (Oh, how I love you sewing machine!)
For you Echo Park purists, yes, the color is a little off here. Like I said. Snow. Clouds.
No good natural light to take the picture.
My poor friend who was visiting me this from Ohio said, "There's snow on the ground."
(Imagine that spoken in a horror-filled voice)
"That's not snow," I told her.
"What is it then?" she asked.
"Dandruff." was my reply.
I think it works. They're both yucky--especially at this time of year!
:) Thanks for stopping!! ~Wendy
