MAMA-HOOD


Finally, I'm posting a layout! I think I still need to do the one 'about me'? I had fun creating this layout. The photo and supplies have been ready for weeks but life takes over, inspiration hits a hiatus...and here we are. :)

I used all the supplies from Studio Calico's Cotillion kit with the exception of the Thickers and tiny butterflies. The colors and patterns in the kit weren't really my cup of tea but I took it as a challenge and used it. And if you know me, butterflies are not my thing (Right, Jenny?! :)). The Heidi Swapp butterfly rub-on was cut-off because when I took it out of the package the bottom right part permanently stuck to the backing paper it was packaged with...so as Ali E. says "go with the flow"...so I put it on anyway.

I liked how it turned out. There's something to say about 'butterflies and babies'. This is a photo of Joey taken during his first week home. The photo is fuzzy because it was taken on D's cellphone...this photo makes me so happy! I miss these days!

  1. I LOVE it Abby! It's so different from your usual style with the butterflies and colors. You know me - you had me at butterflies!! I love how you used the white paper to ink the design on the craft (going to copy you on that). And that is such a sweet picture of you as a new mama. Look how tiny Joey is! There is something with babies and butterflies that go so well together. Love it Abby!
