since i was blogging about them yesterday … might as well finish today. then i'll move on to some family stuff tomorrow. made this layout last night.
this wasn't planned at all … but i love how it turned out. i had these photos sitting in a pile … and then got the bright idea to scrap them together. then i found these papers and stickers that i have been wanting to use … they're from the "cute world" collection by autumn leaves. i never would have thought to use the boy collection and the girl collection together … on the same page. but these 2 papers had the same pattern … just different colors … and i thought maybe i could make it work. i liked the idea of splitting the page in half … and doing boy on one side … and girl on the other.
and how clever is my title? "the boy, the girl". i'm always trying to think of short titles … because i never seem to have enough room for too many letters. and i like how this just seemed so straight foreward. the boy. the girl. i do in fact call nikolas "boy" all the time … and i call haley "girlie". then i dug out a few tags and ribbon that matched. and these circle stickers fit perfectly in my large rims for the tag maker … and then they were added with big pop-dots. and string tied down the middle for a finishing touch. this seems so go on all my layouts now. are you tired of it yet … can one use too much string? lol!
supplies:
pattern paper , stickers – autumn leaves
tags – creative cafe
ribbon – lil davis
metal rims – making memories
letter stickers – ki memories
embossing – cuttlebug (swiss dot)
other – string, staples
and might as well show a few more pics of them while i'm here. these are all from last week and yesterday.
he always has the cutest shirts!
she has always been obsessed with my lens cap. i have pics of her when she was about 6 mths old … clutching my lens cap. it was the only way i could take any photos of her.
curling iron in one hand … grabbing nikolas's shirt with the other hand. nikolas giving that look, like "what the heck?". you see where this is going?
this is haley … very determined to use that curling iron on nikolas. can you picture what she's thinking here? "i am GOING to curl your hair whether you want it or not"! yes, she will literally drag him by his shirt and grab him around the neck to get him to hold still. i shouldn't laugh and take pics … but i did.
the dude doesn't even have long hair. but she will sit and pull on his hairs … trying to get the curling iron on them. she means well.
and girlie is spending lots of time hanging out by the front door … calling for mommy. i know it's just a stage … she worries some. but i can prove that she really does love it here … and does have fun.
love to see smiles that big!
also love to see fishie faces! lol! and with that … i'm totally caught up in sharing pics of them. next up will be my girls! stay tuned!
