Funny Face...baby

Here is a scrapbook page that I was able to work on today. My friend Lisa & I got together to put some crafting into our day! I have had the idea in my mind to do a page titled "funny face" with her picture for a while now. When she giggles she has this squinting expression that is so adorable I felt the title fit her. I also recall an old song my grandparents had on a 8 track tape of Donna Fargo song of the same title so I added it to the playlist for the fun of it. ( I don't believe it was actually on the playlist...wow!) The letters (Rustic Alphabet) are stamped with sweat leaf ink on sweet leaf paper then cut out & set on the page with pop dots. The tags are stamped, handwritten then attached with sassy string. I added the spring iris paper for contrast, a fun color combo. I enjoy stamping on my scrapbook pages that is what I like about Close to my Heart products, great stamps & papers all in one book!
There have been so many birthdays lately, I needed to get some cards made as my stock is running low. I have to give Kim a big thanks for the layout idea, I just changed up the colors. The card is textured sweet leaf paper (again) & colonial white with a sticker from the sweet floral my originals card kit. I added some sassy strand in green to give an extra somethin!!! Must be in a "green" mode today or just looking forward to spring & seeing some green outside instead of dirty snow!
It was actually a really beautiful day outside, AJ got to ride his new bike, he loved it. He had two friends over today to play...it's spring break so it was a fun day for him. Isabella had a fun day trying to keep up with the"big" kids. She accomplished one new task today which was she learned to ride horse. Not quite...we have a rocking horse & she was attempting to climb on to it which is taller than she is. When she couldn't get it I helped her on, then off again. Wouldn't you know once I turned around to sit down she had figured out how to climb on herself & then she got off again. I couldn't believe it the little stinker...she has no fear & loves to climb!!! She is only 14 months old, & such a busy little girl.

I am glad you sent me a link. Wow! Can't wait to see what you do next. You are tagged and need to go to my blog to see the rules.

BTW, I haven't forgotten you want the recipe to the criss cross card. I am working on getting it on paper for you.
