Sweet Baby...Sweet Layout...

So here we are once again with this sweet little "stolen" baby of some friends of mine!!!!  Isn't she precious?!  This time the picture was given to me...so I suppose "stealing babies" is a bit of a stretch for this on!  This is a past Scraps of Elegance kit and some other "what nots" I had hanging around my scrap room.  I have been exceptionally busy and stressed in the past couple of months, so my kits have been stacking up and I haven't really had the chance to use my creative outlet for stress relief.  Luckily I took some time off this past week and I'm mostly caught up.  Sadly, most of the layouts I completed were already in progress, but finishing them up gave me some closure.  Here is the part 2 of the "Stealing Baby" project!

 

I love soft feel of the Blue Fern Studios papers.  They always seem to put me at ease and make me feel a little relaxed.  I had mostly completed this layout, but had been tossing flowers to the side to use on it when I had a chance to finish for weeks.  Below you can see one of the flower clusters!  The monogram charm is from Prima and I used some dainty ribbon to tie a bow on top of it! 

Below you can see some of the paper layering.  I did some punching and distressing to the papers and used some ink to give the LO a special aged look!  You can see some more of the flowers here as well...

These tags came with the kit.  I used some of the same dainty ribbon to tie them up as well.  I originally planned to write or stencil some design or sentiment on the tags, but they were a little small and I loved the way they looked "as is"!

Below is one more view of some of my flower clusters, punching, stamping, and layering!  I used a little bit of gesso on some of the flowers (the tan one came speckled and I liked the look of it!)

I hope you enjoyed checking this out!!!  Have a great week!
