The Fantastic Four

Yeah, we DO superheroes around here.  But this Fantastic Four is even cooler than that other one.  Well, they’re cuter anyway!

I created this for Right at Home Scrapbooking with Darling Dear from Studio Calico.  I’m not one to use much vellum but I was a sucker for the subtle chevron print on this vellum and used it to add some depth to my background with the star cut. 

These Studio Calico mini wood stars are pretty much my most favorite thing ever.  I want a giant room full of them so I can swim in it like Scrooge McDuck in his money bin.  Yeah… anyway…

I had a lot of fun with this page.  I used some colors and icons I don’t usually use and I ended up really loving what happened with it!

My Sweet Heart

It’s true… I make gorgeous babies.  I may be insecure about 98% of anything related to myself but my kids are my biggest pride and joy and I like to show them off!  Here’s my littlest Valentine, Lily, being a model sweetheart for the Pink Paislee Love Note line:

I used all kinds of fussy cuts, stitching, and ephemera to form the heart design around the cluster of photos. 



I think this is my favorite Valentine collection ever in case you couldn’t tell.  ;-)

I am linking this up to the Paper Issues Pink Paislee/Mother's Day issue... link up, see more inspiration, and enter to win some of your own!
