These are photos of my sister's (sgoetter) daughter and granddaughter. Both photos were taken at my mother's home.

Journaling reads: "It's amazing how much Maggie favors Kimmer's baby pictures. She is definitely the spitting image of her mother. They both had the same sweet little smile and beautiful blue eyes. I hope Maggie will grow up to have the same sweet, funny personality as her mom."

The page design is based on a layout I found in my CTMH catalog, only I turned it sideways. The pps are Fly a Kite by October Afternoon. The ribbons are by American Crafts. The "rickrack" is stamped using CTMH ink and "Crumpets" stamp by Basic Grey. The lettering was cut using my Cuttlebug and QuicKutz Phoebe and Stilleto fonts. I used a corner rounder on all the corners and added random circles and glass beads. Some of the circles are pop dotted for dimension. The holes for the stitching were punched using the stitching guide by Stampin' Up and the stitching is done in two colors, tied off in random spots. The "flowers" at the bottom were made by punching small squares, then using the corner rounder on opposing corners. I finished it off by adding some brads to the ribbon and some brown doodling. Thanks so much for looking!

***I just noticed while posting this that I have some "stitches" missing on the top piece! OOPS! That's because I had everything done, and left it laying on my table for a couple of days. Every time I looked at it, I didn't like something about it. Finally, I figured out that I didn't like the placement of the two lower squares on the right hand side - the two "busy" prints were conflicting. So I reversed them. When I did that, the little bird circle was also repositioned down lower, but I didn't notice the missing stitches till now - I will go fix that right now - LOL!
