Scrapping the little things

My subject for today's scrapbook page is my littlest grandgirl, Emmalyn aka Emmy. To look at this beautiful picture you'd think this sweet face is nothing but sugar and spice....au contraire!!!! She's just like her mom who is also like that little girl in the nursery rhyme....
There once was a girl
with a little curl
right in the middle of her forehead.
When she was good
she was very, very good
but when she was bad she was horrid!

LOL!!  Such is Emmy, little stinker. I just love her to pieces though and moments like this one pictured are so precious. :)


Banners are so sweet and I can't get enough of them. I hope you're not tired of seeing them! I love using different elements to make each one special and unique. Instead of bows at the ends, I added mini roses to this one. These are not my handmade flowers though, these are Prima. (They were so cheap on sale I couldn't resist.) Doily is by My Creative Time as are the hearts, and some of the pennants. Butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch.

The brads and tags are by My Minds Eye and coordinate with the paper pad I used for the layout. Lost and Found Two, Sunshine 6x6.

I used My Creative Time, Fun in the Sun stamps to create her name using letters from different words in that set. The date is the Just Simply Live stamp set. The large flower is one I made from several premade flat flowers, and the small one is another Prima mini rose. Leaves are My Creative Time.

Fishtail tag banner dies by My Favorite Things.

Thank you for coming to see my project today. I'm loving this new "out of the box" (for me!) style and didn't even use a sketch or inspiration piece for this one, believe it or not!! I guess I'm getting more comfortable outside that box! ;)

  2. Love how you used the flowers on the ends of the banner. I am going to try that on my next banner layout. Also love the colors you used they are not girly girly colors but it looks so feminine and great.

  3. I know that poem well :D You should use it in a page...even if it is on a hidden pull out journal tag. Great job on your page and congratulations on being out of the box. I like all of the special embellishments you used and I like how you did the name from different stamps in a set. Beautiful!

  4. This is such a precious layout for showcasing your adorable Emmy. I love the play between the colors, patterns/textures and the brads, banners and flowers!
