Star Baby Layout

I used star paper above my nephew to create the affect that he was looking up at a star mobile.  He was so bubbly and not at all camera shy that day on the changing table.  He was even cuter when he had the hiccups.

Beautiful & Perfect Layout

 This must be the most embellished layout I've ever made.  I had lots of fun incorporating transparencies with gold metallic designs.  I think the little pink transparent bubbles (Dew Drops) finished off the layout perfectly.

 Nothing is more perfect than a sleeping baby.  The BW photos were fun to work with so I could get carried away with all the shades of pink.

Strawberries Baby!

Hey Everybody,

I'd like to show you how I transformed Tear Drops into cute strawberries & bees.  All you need is a fine tip permanent marker and Tear Drops.  Hop on the cuteness train, my niece is adorable.  She certainly makes my heart do a "happy dance."  Here we go...off to pick some strawberries!  

The full tutorial for my double page layout can be found HERE.

Angel Baby Layout

I know we have passed the half way point in the year but let's celebrate "new beginnings" anyways.  My niece was sleeping so peacefully through her photo shoot even with 3 outfit changes!  It was a new challenge to use grey on a layout but I'm super pleased with the result.  The pastel colors really highlight the baby theme.  The "Think Pink" label on the upper left corner is actually a fabric clothing label that I removed from one of my nieces cute outfits. You can learn more about this layout HERE on the ScraPerfect Blog.

I Am Four - Layout

Hey There,
Cutting balloon shapes out of vellum paper really enhanced the appearance of realistic depth to the layout. When embellishing a layout, I always select the placement of the largest embellishments first and continue to embellish in decreasing sizes. Therefore, Dew Drops are the last finishing touch for a layout as they are the smallest embellishment.

I will warn you now, there is an over-abundance of cuteness ahead!

You can find the tutorial for this layout HERE at The Robin's Nest Blog.
