This & That - A Fuzzy Friend

Echo Park papers have really started to grow on me over the last year.  I loved the This & That line in the boy theme, and I'm also loving this girl themed one too!  I had some amazing shots of my daughter playing with a caterpillar that was wandering in our yard, so I put the This & That to good use.  Using an abundance of Prima flowers and embellishments; some paint splatter (some not very successful I may add); some Glimmer Glaze drips; and finally using some Bazzil Paper Tape.  I'm not sure I'm all into the Washi tape craze yet ... I understand it's versatility, however I have doubts that it is going to withstand the test of time, I think it is going to dry out and peel off when all my photos and flowers remain stuck.  We shall see, I guess.

Cherry Tree double layout - featuring Kissing Booth

I have long since been a fan of Basic Grey - I would put them at the top of my list in paper companies.  However I must admit they have not had many lines in the past year that I have *Loved* but when I saw Kissing Booth I did love everything about this line.  Two tones of pink and brown, yes, my perfect combination for girly pages.  I am blessed to have both a daughter and a son, so I can go back and forth with the boy pages and the girl pages.  I have however been rightly accused of doing more pages of my daughter ... I think there are a few reasons for that:

•  I love pink. 
•  I love flowers - and while I still put flowers on my boy pages, I can go haul-ass crazy with them on a girl page.
• My daughter is so much more photogenic than my son ... seriously she is a poser!
• My daughter has been around longer - by 18 months :o)

Anyway, enough excuses, here is another pink layout featuring my daughter and myself.  We were both dressed in pink this day, and the cherry tree in a friend's yard was in full bloom, so we posed and had a mini photo shoot - it was a fantastic day.

Lesson learned on taking photos of your layouts on your Smart Phone though .... the photos are HORRIBLE - I photo shopped the crap out of these photos and they still turned out less than mediocre.
