Baby B

I love doing scrapbook pages. Especially when I have such precious subjects to work with, like my great-niece, Brielle. Isn't she the cutest little squeeze-box ever! I just want to squish her. These are pics from her 4 month photo shoot (boy was it hard to choose only a few for my page! LOL). She had her first birthday last month. Where does the time go?! Ok so on to the business at hand. Dies used for this page are the adorable little Cottage Cutz mouse, minus his big sunflower -- instead, I used one of the small flowers from the mushrooms and flowers die -- and the CC mushrooms and flowers die. And no girlie page would be complete without bling, so there's lots of it!

Thanks so much for looking! Have a fabulously crafty weekend. :)

Li'l Red Riding Hood

I love these photos my daughter took of grandgirl and scrappy buddy, Miss Grace, in her Halloween costume. Daughter, Cyndi, sewed the cape and Grace wore it proudly as she carried her basket trick or treating. :) For this page I've used Cottage Cutz Mrs. Gnome as Red. Her face is stamped using one of the ghost faces from the Cottage Cutz/Peachy Keen Halloween collaboration release, and her basket is -- are you ready? -- a pumpkin from the pick-up truck accessories! Isn't she adorable!

For this embellishment, I used the flowers and mushrooms die, also from the Gnome release. I thought they were perfect for the red riding hood theme. My favorite thing is cutting shapes from pattern papers. I love the whimsical look it gives them with an unexpected pattern or color.

I hope you enjoyed my layout today. Scrapbook pages are my favorite and it's been too long since my last one. :) Have a great weekend. I hope spring has made its way to your part of the country!
