ALMOST DONE!!! (with Alyssa's album...)


After completing these two layouts, I have only ONE (2 page) LAYOUT LEFT!!
For this first one, titled waiting for her tattoo I used the Practical Scrappers Friday Sketch to make the second page (which I did first : -) )  If you make it through all of these photos, please check out my request at the end of this post...





Page 2 (which utilizes the PS sketch)




Even though I received a craft sewing machine for mother's day, I didn't have time to fiddle with it...so I'm still using faux stitching.  
This next layout (which makes 38 pages!!) is titled Mock Trial and I confess the base pages were premade...I just embellished.  I'm not sure why two of the phots flipped when I posted them. Rebelling against the premade bit?



This one shows the second page and below is the same page with two photos that are "hidden" under CTMH flip flaps.



Again...the photo flipped??? I LOVE Tim Holtz products and used his method of altering metal with paint to give it a more aged look.

For the request...would you please check out my 14 year old daughter's BLOG and take her thirty second movie poll. Also, she's trying to motivate herself to write more and decided to write book reviews. Read her first one (another 60 seconds...) and let her know how she's doing. Thanks! Marie with a : )

Good for you for not only letting her do this, but going along for the ride! It is really a beautiful choice for a tattoo- I hope I'll be as brave when my boys are old enough to want to do stuff like this!
