Girls and Grandparents

Here's a simple page I did from Labor Day weekend camping with my husband's parents up by Mackinac Bridge. I copied the layout from one I'd recently seen in Creative Keepsakes,

and decided to keep it simple. For the base, I chose Bashful Blue--not the true color, though. It was from a STampin' up package I'd had a while, and it seems to be a different shade than it should be. It doesn't match the way it should. Oh well! I used Cutie Pie designer paper and traced out a circle from a bowl, and then cut it in half. I used one side on the bottom, and then flipped it over to use the other side of the circle on the top. I used Regal Rose POP paper to cover my chipboard letter P and flower, and then stamped the rest of my word (retty and circle) on Certainly Celber POP. I also used a strip of Cutie Pie paper to go all the way across both pages to create a continuing line to bring the pics all together. The hardest part here was to cut my picture in the middle in half! I hope when it's in the book that it doesn't look funny.
