The colors are wonderful! The blue really makes the pink pop.

Great LO...Ryleigh is sure growing up. So, did she like it?

She didn't like how sticky it was but was torn cause it was so sugary sweet.

Great layout - great job of trailing the title throughout the layout. Not everyone can do that and still make it readable (did I just make up a new word?).

How cute! You did a great job with it, Christy!

Adorable! I love the title also - very well done. Question for you - when you distress the edges, do you just tear by hand, or do you have a tool that makes it easier? I recently purchased the Tim Holtz paper distresser, and have been very disappointed. Maybe it only works on the thickest of stuff, but I've been wanting that torn look, but don't like what I get when I tear by hand (too much core exposed).

Sorry for the hijack... that question just dawned on me when I saw all of your perfectly distressed layers.

I use the tiny TH distresser. Usually put the paper on my leg for support and distress away.
I am not spending 40+$ on the electronic one and if I use scissors I just shred the paper.

Hmm. I guess I just need more practice with it. I was hoping you had a magic distressing tool (that was cheap, of course)

depending on the paper, I will use a cheap fingernail file from the dollar store. It works great for me!

Christy, this is so adorable. What a great "first" to capture!
