It is always fun to pull out a scrap-book page I have made for a class and use it in my personal scrapbooks. I have several baby pages that I have been saving to use with a baby of mine (not that I will be having any more babies myself but I do have hope that my daughters will have a few for me to call my own someday) but I don't see a baby coming into my home in the near future except this little guy. He is Jackson and has connections is several ways to our family. I used to baby sit his dad when he was young and lived in Utah, my daughters baby sit him, his mom is a friend and customer and Jackson has lived at our home most of the summer since Tysha was his nanny. We have all become attached to him and him to us.
He is one spoiled baby with all the mothering that he gets when he is at our home. He is also just so darn cute to take photos of and since he was right here and sometimes a willing participant I have a few really cute pictures of him growing up. The other day I realized that I have not taken too many photos of him with the girls so we tried to get a shot or two so they all remember how close they were to this baby as he grew into a toddler.
The page is Whisper White card-stock that we glued 3" squares to and then created a grid pattern around them using a black writer. The Bashful Blue card-stock was cut with scissors in a wave pattern and the Certainly Celery card-stock was punched along the edge with the small oval punch. I used a marker to color the boat from Stampin' Up!'s Nursery Necessities stamp set and ink pads to stamp the moon, and stars from that stamp set. The colors I used were: Apricot Appeal, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery and Regal Rose. I typed my journaling on the computer and printed it on Vellum card-stock and attached it to the page using the mini library clips.
