This page features my son Caleb and his new friend Sam. Sam's mom Melissa and I have been on-line crafty pals for some time and we finally got a chance to meet during a recent trip to Milwaukee while my hubby was attending a training. I was super excited to meet Melissa in real life and the boys were excited to meet her kids and spend a day at the zoo. Caleb was especially thrilled to learn that Melissa's son Sam was the same age as him. There's something about being 7 1/2 that makes you the best of buddies. The boys got along great and had a great day together, much like Melissa and I! This layout reminds me of that fun day and makes me long for another visit with Melissa and her sweet kiddos. Hopefully, next time our husbands can join us too!
For this layout, I used papers from the A Boy's Life collection by Echo Park along with some other scraps and pieces of random EP lines. My title was made by fussy cutting letters from this piece of patterned paper from A Boy's Life collection:
I pieced together a sun and cut some clouds from other EP patterned papers. My favorite feature is a little airplane and banner that I fussy cut from this patterned paper and popped up with foam dots:
And here's the original sketch, by design team member Katrina Hunt, that inspired it all:
