Remember that song from R.E.M.? That was one of my favorite songs growing up (did I just date myself? LOL!). That song was the inspiration for this layout about Darian. He IS one of those shiny, happy, people. Always smiling and beaming from within.
I used more of the Quilting Bee kit from Studio Calico for this layout. It was fun to make - just one of those "for me" pages that I don't have to really worry about and can just enjoy the process.
I used one of the wood veneer frames from the kit spritzed with a little orange mist to frame this photo of Darian. Just look at that face! LOL!
And here I jumped on the banner bandwagon and added one of my own to this layout using the adorable banner stickers from Sassafras.
I just wanted to point out the little formspring box over on the left sidebar. I get a lot of questions asked to me in blog posts etc but blogger doesn't have a super cool email feature like typepad does so a lot of times I don't really have a great way to answer them. I saw my gal pal Kelly Goree had this on her blog and I thought it might be a great solution to this problem. So ask away! :)
i love your layout....
ReplyDeleteYour layouts are always so BRIGHT and fresh! Love them.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I have to say thanks (sarcasticly) for getting that song trapped inside my head LOL!! What a great layout. I love how you highlighted the photo with that punchy orange circle :O)
ReplyDeleteThat question bar is a great idea! Awesomeness. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove your layout! I'm glad you did it stress-free! LOL. It is nice sometimes to just not *think* and create. Funny, I feel more creative that way. WHY?! LOL. It must be the pressure... ;-)
I love your page and am glad you just scrapped for "you" for once!! I just love all that you make. I really need to break out my sewing machine and start machine sewing. It looks so wonderful
ReplyDeleteI have that song stuck in my head too...dates me as well!! LOL
LOVE how you used the SC kit. I have mine sitting in my craft room waiting for me. I really like that you painted the veneer orange. So cool! Oh, just so you know, if that song dates you, it dates me, too. Did you dance to "Stand", too? I bet I could still do that one.
