I want to share this fun little layout that I completed this past weekend at a crop I was at with the amazingly talented HEATHER LEOPARD. She inspired me to play along with Lily Bee's "Tag You're It" Series that began with a fabulous sketch (also created by Heather), which can be found HERE! The "Tag, You're It" week may be over, but the sketch looked like so much fun, I had to give it a try!
I know everyone is focused on Christmas right now, but these two pics of my youngest child and my oldest child (aka, the Hubster) were so adorable I could not wait to scrap them. Seriously? How often do you get to scrap people you know dancing down the sidewalk - and in perfect sync no less? Right?!! Besides, LILY BEE'S Motto is "Everyday Loveliness" and that is EXACTLY what this is - everyday loveliness!
I love the We R Family Collection; however, my local scrapbook store was out of almost everything I wanted to use. But - I am a lemonade out of lemons kind of girl, so I reached into my stash and pulled out my papers from the Pinwheel Collection, which just happened to coordinate beautifully with the We R Family double deck cards. See?
To give my layout a little extra dimension, I added pop dots behind these 3x4 cards. I also made a journaling pocket out of the first card and stuck a little tag made with paper from the Pinwheel Collection into it. I love it when different collections play so well together, don't you?
I think this will be my motto for 2014 - Happy Family Together.
Seriously, I was able to fussy cut to my little heart's content with the 3x4 cards and papers...
I loved making this layout and hope I have inspired you - inspired you to use bright colors, to mix your patterns and collections, to take pictures of the silliness and everyday moments, to make lemonade from lemons, and most of all to enjoy your happy family together.
Merry Christmas Eve, y'all!
