Learning to Crawl


Here's another layout I made using the (now sold out) July kit from Crazy Daisy Kits. Just when you thought it was only good for 'boy' pages, here I go and do a 'girl' page. :)

I fell in love with the gorgeous crochet flower in the kit. So pretty! I added a tiny pearl to the centre, and a few pearl swirls to the edges. To 'soften' the ticket, I added a little pearl to that, too.

I kept trying to use that swirl edge Prima journaling sheet on my pages, and I just couldn't make it work, but it was perfect for this girl page. It cut it in half length-wise, so I could use it top and bottom on the page. Otherwise, half of it would have been hidden in the layers.

I added a few Prima flowers from my stash to this page, and a few more pearls. I love the look these give, and they mixed well with the buttons from the kit.
