Baby Smiles...

I often joke around about my friends passing out if they see or hear that I made a scrapbook page. It's like a solar eclipse...very rarely do I scrapbook. The funny thing is I LOVE to finished look and putting it together...the problem is sometimes it can be time consuming. I am happy to report that since I have started using stamps on my scrapbook pages it goes much faster *smiles*. Be sure to check back again on May 3rd for National Scrapbooking Day because I will be posting another *gasp* scrapbook page for you! Yup...you read that right!!!

Today's scrapbook page is of my daughter. This photo was taken close to 4 years ago now. I began by stamping some CHF images (photo op and the large polka dot backgrounder)



You can see from the close ups that I pulled the "round" theme throughout the page by using touches of polka dots on the letters and on the heart.



I also had a lot of fun with my sewing machine...(as you can see I am still learning!) I used my slit punch and circle punch to create the scalloped edges.



I stamped the heart using white ink, poured clear emboss over it and heat set it. Because the heart is plastic I recommend taking your time to heat set it (from a distance) so as not to melt it.

Tip: Adhere the heart using glue dots behind the polka dots!
