K is for Kisses...

So I thought I would share this page I made for my nephew's 1st birthday gift. A while back I shared some of the other pages I made for this album too. I purchased the vellum ABC's of baby's first year set back in May, and am using an album I purchased years ago, and has been sitting sealed on my shelf since I bought it...lol. I even had a set of refill pages for it, which is probably good since the store I bought it at is no longer in business...so who knows if I could even find the pages that go in it. Well, I have been slowly working on getting all the letters done, but have a few I have struggled with. I just couldn't find the right paper for the background, or just had no ideas what to do with the page. The "K" page is one of those pages. I just wasn't sure the route to go with this one. I thought a paper with lips all over it would be cute, but worried the pink on it would be too girly. I finally found a paper that just jumped right out at me.

So, it does have pink on it, but I thought it turned out super cute. I used my Cricut to cut out a big heart to use at the photo mat, and also cut some "xoxo"s out to add too it too. So it seems a bit girly to me, but really it is not easy to find blue or green lips paper...lol. I added some white chalk ink to the edges of the heart with a stipple brush. I also added some white chalk ink to the "xoxo"s. Sorry about the glare on this photo...the lips are metallic, so the light just hit it right. I tried another shot, but it was too dark.

Well, it is Friday, so that means my dear friend is coming back to do more scrapbooking today. I am hoping to finish the few pages I have left in this album once and for all today. Thanks for stopping by!
