Look Who's Turning 8 !


I just LOVE this photo of Sophie and Adam on her 8th birthday. She is all dressed up ready to go out on her birthday treat - to see 'Mary poppins'. I was taking some photo of her when adam came up and grabbed her for a big brother cuddle. I used the current sketch at 'Scrapfriends'   to design this page.

Isn't it an interesting sketch - I loved working with it.  My papers are fromPink Paislee's 'Portfolio' collection with a little OA and Heidi Swapp. I used the current colours and criteria at CSI :

 
From the evidence list I chose 'doily pattern' and 'something that rolls up' (the edges of some of my papers) I also have some stripes on my background papers.
Since a large journaling block did not fit with my design I hid most of my journaling on a tag tucked behind the photo. Here is what it says:

Although 10 years separate you two, in many ways you are like peas in a pod. You both have open, sunny, cheerful, quirky personalities and have your own sense of style. You have your own ideas and opinions on most things and are definitely amongst life's 'leaders'. You are popular and are loyal and caring toward family and friends. You are both totally and completely adored!"
 
Hope you can try one or other of these cool challenges yourself :)))
