He's a Big Boy Now

I really loooove the colors in this month's kit. I think the striped Making Memories paper and stickers may be some of my all time faves. I used my handy dandy Marvy Uchida Giga Scallop punch to make kind of a border around this picture of J. I also used some scrap cardboard to lend a rugged "boyish" look to the pastel colors. Then I sewed a little semi circle around the border with my sewing machine. It still kills my Mother that I use the machine for layouts and not clothes! I also cut the middle out of the Heidi Swapp "Relax" sticker and used the remaining border as a frame for my name and date info.
