My Sweet Little, Silly Boy!


I was inspired by Mindy Pitcher's layout over at CK and am entering it into Simon Says Stamp and Show Some Buttons! challenge.  If you look closely at all of the Echo Park squares, you will see that I added buttons on every one!  I think you can tell that I used Echo Park's Little Boy collection! I also did a little recycling for this layout!  The blue circle under the polka-dot button on the right bottom square is from a pair of my husband's jeans!!  In fact, look at all these polka dots!  This definitely qualifies for The Paper Variety's challenge this week!   You can pull on the little red tab above the photo mat to see some hidden journaling about the photo!

By the way, this was in 1998 (which is noted in the journaling that you can't see)! My little boy is now 17...

  9. Oh wow this is just gorgeous Kelly, I love the squares and adding the button to each one is a fantastic idea. I had trouble using the papers with the busy designs, this was a fantastic idea. Melxx
