This layout was actually inspired by a comment our friend, Carri (Caletts), made on my last layout, "Limited Edition". She said Daniel kind of looks like me. I remembered these pictures I had, me in Kindergarten at 5 years old and Daniel in preschool at 4 years old. So, this is what I came up with!

The cool thing is, I stopped by one of our local antique malls to get some reading material, came out with no books, but I did get these Scrabble tiles and my background papers there! One of the sellers has some scrapbooking supplies and I got several things for a very good price! I was tickled pink that I found this paper to use right off the bat! I inked around the edges of all the tiles with TH Walnut Stain distress ink pad.

A new technique (for me) and inspired by Pam (FritillaryB) was heat embossing around the edges of the background paper as well as the phrase paper at the bottom. I took a piece of scrap paper to use as a guideline for the edges, rubbed my Versamark and then used Ranger's Liquid Platinum embossing powder. I also used it on the beautiful flourish and Generation chippies from Creative Embellishments.

Special thanks to:

Donna (Bonprof) for the gorgeous Reneabouquets Beautiful Board clock
Karin (Mosbarger) for the lovely Prima flowers Rossibelle
Carri (Caletts) for the cardstock I used for the labels
Marylou (Meggie's Nana) for the Ice Queen and Minnie Pearl prills

The cloisonne and gold button in the floral cluster were from my Mom's button tin so that makes it extra special. Feathers at the top are from Wild Turkeys we've had on our property. Butterflies are Reneabouquets.

One thing I might add....we are no longer bashful!! LOL

Thank you so much for visiting my gallery!!
