My very favorite picture EVER

This is my favorite picture that I have ever taken. I used Basic Grey Jovial. Since I have started scrapbooking again - I have ordered some new supplies and will (maybe) be using something other than Basic Grey soon. However, I do LOVE BG. The border is made using SU corner punch. The "Dude that is so cool" is from Stampin up's "So cool" set. I cut the circles with my nesties. The penguin is from Doodle Factory's Arctic. I am not happy with the upper right corner and may see if I can find a more suitable embellishment later.

Hide and Seek

This is another one of my favorite pictures. The journaling reads: We used to go to my Grandpa Hedrick's every Sunday. The kids would play outside. Sometimes, they convinced Papa Gordy (my dad) to play with them. One day they played hide and seek. Papa must have been tired because the kids found him sleeping in the car! Hide and seek, my foot - more like hide and sleep!
I used Basic Grey Wander paper and stickers. The journaling page is from making memories and the words and numbers are cut with cricut cartridges Lyrical Letters and Classic Font.

Beautiful Dog

This is Suki. She died two years ago next November. She was such a sweet dog and I've been missing her lately. The ice cream truck drove through the neighborhood the other day playing "Do Your Ears Hang Low" and it reminded me of her. She was a full-size dog on short legs who thought she was a lap dog. She loved everyone - used to bed hop so that all of got a turn to snuggle with her. She didn't bay or slober (much) like most basset hounds do. And, she was so patient with Kai from the time he was baby to even when he was a terrorizing toddler. No dog will ever compare to her, so I haven't ever tried to replace her.
The layout is made using a Max and Whiskers kit from basic grey. The "beautiful" embellishment is a brad that I've had forever - no idea what brand it is. The rub-on heart is Elsie.

Ihaven't done a scrapbook page in ages. The DP is Bo Bunny. I really like it for this picture because it has the bright green of the chair the kitties were lying on, but also has the pretty blue that brings out their eyes. I made the frame and the lettering for "Siamese" with my cricut, using Lacy Labels and Lyrical Letters. The "Twins" is done with fondue alphabet soup from KI.
