this was the first layout i did. i totally confess to putting this outfit on coleman and having an impromptu photo shoot just for this product. i edited this photo using the techniques from my class and just love love love how well it matches the papers. used acrylic paint, if you can't tell. journaling says: rocker baby is the perfect nickname for you. at four months old you want to be everywhere - but your body just won't cooperate yet. you are so curious and adventurous!
this started out as a 12x12 page but i just was never happy with it. i finally figure out if i squished it down to an 11x8.5 page, it looked much better. the large title sticker is on pop dots but the dimension doesn't show well in the photo. the tab to the right of the photo pulls out to reveal journaling. this photo was not posed - it was from the beach and he just happened to have on "the outfit". i did some editing to it as well, but wasn't as pleased with the outcome.
i realized i had enough product leftover to make yet another page. i was flipping through my pictures (assuming i'd use another of coleman) and found this picture of me holding colton at the hospital. the colors worked perfectly. there is a sticker tag tucked behind the photo. i adhered it to some cardstock and journaled on the back.
and to use the leftovers...two cards. i hate that this picture came out so blurry because these are actually really cute! left card had some ribbon. and the sticker says "welcome to the jungle" so it'd make a good *new baby* card. the black stuff on the right card is actually two tassles. i like this because it's not baby-specific. both of these cards started out as monogram american crafts cards and i covered up the parts i didn't want and kept the ones i did.
Unrelated, but I also made this sympathy card for a co-worker of Matt's. Very simple, but I like how it turned out.
