Love. Smitten with you

Lately, as I scroll through my photo album in my iPhone, all I see are photos of my baby boy... I have neglected taking pictures of a lot of little daily stuffs (and my darling cat, Penny) and I probably should remind myself to take more pictures of 'insignificant' daily happenings too, you know.. for Project Life? haha.

Here's another layout I made using photos from Persnickety Prints. I love their 3x4 polaroid prints.

He makes me very exasperated at times but when he smiles, he melts my heart once again. I guess that's a baby's special ability, right?

I handstitched all the stitchings on this layout as my sewing machine is giving me some issues and I am lazy to fix it... 

Do link up your Persnickety or fussy cutting projects over at Paper Issues for your chance to win a $25 gift card!

Watercolor fun

I am going to share another layout that I made using the photos that I ordered from Persnickety Prints. Watercolor is a trend that I've been seeing on layouts lately, so I attempted to create a layout with it too. 

I used my waterbrush to pick up some watercolor from the palette (I chose pink) and just brushed it on my bazzill cardstock. I used a hairdryer to dry the paper cos I can't wait for it to dry. My scrapping time is very limited now that I have a newborn. The paper curled a little but it's ok. Just try to blow-dry it from both front and back and that should straighten it out a little.

Here's my finished layout. 

This is not my usual style but I kinda like that it looks dreamy with the vellum and white on white elements. I was inspired by Wilna Furstenburg while creating this layout :)

Have fun!
