Go Fly a Kite



Go Fly A Kite - Journaling reads "We spent several windy days this month flying a kite out in the backyard. The kids had no problem keeping the reigns as the wind whipped the kite around and loved chasing after it to toss it back into the air when it dropped."

I really like the colors and patterns on this layout and the birds flying out from the clouds. The green dot paper is laid into the shape of a kite, which is half hidden by the photos. What do you think about the leftover alpha letters as leaves and stems? Is it obvious that's what they are? I've run out of vowels on that set and hate to see them go to waste. The fabric flower was part of a favorite T-shirt that got stained.

Supplies: Paper: October Afternoon
                   Alpha Stickers: Cosmo Cricket, October Afternoon, American Crafts
                   Stamp: Inkadinkado
                   Ink: Colorbox
                   Pen: Sharpie
                   Brad: Crate Paper
                   Other: fabric, thread


Here is another from last week's Studio Calico sunday sketch. This is my very favorite photo from Easter. The girls normally fight over everything and I thought candy would be no exception - and yet here is Rora handing an egg to Leah, who had found less eggs. What a sweet moment to capture.

Easter Hunnies - Journaling reads: "Proof that you are not only sisters, but are becoming friends too. ♥♥"

Supplies: mostly unknown, except this border punch and October Afternoon from above layout
