Grandma's Pond


I have been working on some layouts to use as samples for my Scrapbook Design and You classes at Michaels.  Here is a layout of my son Tanner and my niece Sabryna feeding the fish in Grandma's pond.  I am using the colors purple, green and orange and I followed a sketch I saw on the LID challenge on the Cricut Layout forum.  This sketch was from last month so it is too late for me to enter it!!

These two are just precious ~ they are 6 weeks apart and I take many photos of them together.  Someday I want to make a cousins album of them!!  Also, just before this photo Tanner fell into the pond!  At 4 1/2 I did not think he would need an extra outfit for a visit to Grandma's!!

I used Storybook for the font.  Since my Gypsy is still on vacation (she just extended her stay) I was forced to use my Cricut without her.  This is challenging for me now as I have a hard time guessing what size of letters I need.  I only wasted a little paper....
