welcome

With a precious new baby in the family, I just couldn't resist making a girly page featuring our beautiful new niece.  This page is featured today over at Practical Scrappers where there are tons of baby layouts to inspire you. 

This layout was inspired by a sketch by Kristy Lee for Scrapbook Steals.  I grabbed some pink supplies that don't get much use in my house, and started layering with browns and creams.  I've never been a fan of pink, so this pushes me WAY out of my comfort zone.  I had the pink fringy trim in my stash for over a year and decided this would be the perfect way to add a little sparkle and bling to my page.  My favorite addition is the meandering twine featuring some mini clothes pins (also something I've had in my stash for 10 years!) 

This layout will be my last one created for the design team at Practical Scrappers, as my term is coming to an end at the end of the month.  I've had great fun and have met a lot of talented ladies, so I'm sure I'll continue to play along as a fan for their on-going challenges!  Thanks for stopping by!
