Some weekends leave you feeling happy and content with your life.......this weekend was one of those! I spent a lot of alone time with my daughter Cortney. Kyle spent time with his dad and grammy. Today, Cort and I and a few friends headed down to Chicago to the American Girl Doll Store. We had lunch, shopped, took tons of pictures, and laughed our butts off. It was a sweet, memorable day........one that will stay with me for a long time. So since this has been a weekend filled with Cortney, I wanted to share a page with you that I created. I cut the tree freehand using a scrap piece of cardboard. The "leaves" were cut using vintage book paper and then distressed a bit. The stamps were Crafty Secret's Fairyland set. (Just released and available for purchase!) I used a chipboard frame for her picture and covered that with DP. When it was dry I cut it out using an Xacto knife and then sanded the edges.
