A Little Birdie Told Me . . .

     My 4 year old granddaughter loves to get her toenails painted. These pics were taken at her last pedicure. 

     This paper is leftover from a card class I took a couple of years ago. The cards were so pretty that I bought a few pages from the paper line. As I sifted through my paper, I picked this one, because of the soft and feminine look it had.  

    

   

     For this layout I am using a sketch by Lisa Hidy. To participate in the challenge, you have the entire month of November over at Sketch N Scrap.

     In the last Copic coloring class I took, we colored a Gorjuss girl. It inspired me to color this one that I have had for a while and haven't even stamped it once. I fussy cut her and pop dotted her to a patterned paper mat. I also used the complimentary stamps from another Gorjuss stamp set. These are the bows and the journaling oval. I added the bows to her hair, the oval, and the circle.

     I bought the paper flowers at Hobby Lobby right before I left for my scrapbooking cruise. I thought the turquoise/white flowers would be great for a nautical layout. I never got a chance to use them, so here they are.

     I got the title "Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful" from the patterned paper. The blue birds were extra stamps in the set.
